67318 2002-08-01 05:19:00 I use Zone Alarm ...
Since I down loaded the upgrade .. apart from having no idea now how to enter another ummm webpage ?? hehehehe .. it keeps popping up with the following message ... **the firewall has blocked internet access to your computer (NetBIOS Sexxion) from 210.54.66.3 (TCP Port 1258) (TCP Flags: S **
Does this mean that someone is attempting to access my computer .. ??
I thank it politely for advising me .. though its telling me more and more often ..

So its just a normal ocurrence most likely, as are most firewall alerts.

67321 2002-08-01 05:48:00 Go into the options and somewhere in there you can disable the popup alerts. Turn them off otherwise they'll soon drive you nuts.

Most of the access attempts are benign and are just websites checking to see if you are still around.
