Stolen Bandwidth
    #5962337 - 08/14/06 10:52 AM (17 years, 9 months ago)

System info:
Windows ME
Dialup.
Yeah, I know already, LOL..
My problem is that I've noticed that last few days that my internet connection has been slowed quite a bit. I opened up MSDOS and did a "Netstat" I had an established connection from "SaunaLahti.fi" (62.142.11.7) on port 80. Anyone know what the heck this is about? I had no browsers open. I'm downloading ZoneAlarm from Zone Lab to set up a firewall. Anyone know about the site that was sucking my bandwidth or the level of threat that it poses?

I'm sure that wasn't their intentions, but on my end it was the results.
Why do people insist on answering a question with a question? Do you realize that your not being very helpful?
Just installed Agnitum, problem solved... I think.

I use Adaware (spyware protection) and Avast(virus protection)Also Peerguardian with the spyware protection list didn't stop it. I haven't had a problem since I installed the firewall, which I'm sure is something I should of done long ago, esp. with an outdated OS. I haven't had a notice that they even attempted to connect.. so, we'll see. Anymore questions anyone? : )
