168600 2003-08-19 04:26:00 I run WinXP Professional, Zone Alarm and AdAware which are constantly updated, and have high-speed cable internet. My problem is that I am receiving over 80 ping attempts to my IP address in under 30 minutes.
These are being successfully blocked at the moment, but I want to know if I can stop them altogether, or at least get the beggars back at their own game!!

168601 2003-08-19 04:43:00 You can't stop the pings but you can stop the notifications of them. Not sure where to turn them off but have a sniff around and you will find the setting somewhere. Fire-and-Ice (3910)
168602 2003-08-19 06:09:00 you can try to talk to your isp to see if they can block. if its random, its hard to tackle.

if someone knows how to do it, I am also interested to know.

Cheers
