Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration. The Rules 1.

Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. 10.

Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit. 13.

Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines.

 I'm being bombarded on port 6346! I've been connected to the internet via cable connection for 2 months now - turns out I have a static IP Address (at least it hasn't changed yet!). I've had Limewire installed for several months. Two weeks ago I installed ZoneAlarm Pro, and ever since I've noticed that as my computer boots I start getting attacked on port 6346 from IP Address 64.229.72.239. This 'bombardment' never ceases, and connection attempts are being made to my computer about every minute or two for as long as my computer's up and running. This happens even when Limewire's not running. Because the connection attempt is to port 6346, I'm guessing that it's a Limewire-related issue. My ZoneAlarm logs indicate two types of connection attempts, both FWIN and FWROUTE. FWIN indicates an inbound packet of data coming to your computer. FWROUTE indicates a packet that was not addressed to or from your computer, but was routed through it. Considering the nature of a Gnutella network, this might be normal. But should this be happening even when I'm not running Limewire? Is IP Address 64.229.72.239 trying to hack me, or route through me to hack into other computers? Or could they possibly have me listed as a host IP and keep trying to connect to me constantly? Any words of wisdom would be most appreciated. Here's a fraction of my ZoneAlarm log: type date time source destination transport FWIN 2002/01/10 23:48:02 -5:00 GMT 64.229.72.239:2804 67.160.161.216:6346 TCP (flags:S) FWIN 2002/01/10 23:49:18 -5:00 GMT 64.229.72.239:3213 67.160.161.216:6346 TCP (flags:S) FWIN 2002/01/10 23:50:34 -5:00 GMT 64.229.72.239:3609 67.160.161.216:6346 TCP (flags:S) FWIN 2002/01/10 23:51:49 -5:00 GMT 64.229.72.239:4010 67.160.161.216:6346 TCP (flags:S) FWIN 2002/01/10 23:53:03 -5:00 GMT 64.229.72.239:4401 67.160.161.216:6346 TCP (flags:S) FWIN 2002/01/10 23:54:18 -5:00 GMT 64.229.72.239:4824 67.160.161.216:6346 TCP (flags:S) FWIN 2002/01/10 23:55:33 -5:00 GMT 64.229.72.239:1289 67.160.161.216:6346 TCP (flags:S) FWIN 2002/01/10 23:56:49 -5:00 GMT 64.229.72.239:1682 67.160.161.216:6346 TCP (flags:S) FWIN 2002/01/10 23:58:05 -5:00 GMT 64.229.72.239:2084 67.160.161.216:6346 TCP (flags:S) FWIN 2002/01/10 23:59:22 -5:00 GMT 64.229.72.239:2500 67.160.161.216:6346 TCP (flags:S)  |

| Maybe you were sharing a file that the person at that IP (looks like toronto) wants, so they are blindly hitting your address trying to get it. Why not bring up limewire and initiate a chat with the person and ask them to stop? =) -Pas. |
