5168 2000-06-19 10:15:00 I recently installed a firewall to my PC out of curiosity. Image my surprise when it had blocked a total of twenty seven probes / requests to my computer in one sitting.
4 of them from PC World,
5 or 6 from Netscape Enterprise Server 4.0,
4 from AOL,
and the rest from 'who the heck knows'.

Other than the PC World site, I had never visited any them to my knowledge.

I'd be interested in hearing comments from someone with knowledge in this area.
