As in first post, Linux is a temporary solution for them :) And thing is, when the family PC is turned on, it affects ALL the rest of the PCs on the LAN.. Every single one, OS independant... This is regardless of anything running on the family PC, as long as its turned on, and XP is booted up (Sitting at the login screen even) it'll kill the 'net :( Will have a look at those options Cheers |

| 578388 | 2007-08-09 10:32:00 | chill packet sniff that machine, (Im sure you know how :xmouth:) see if that gives you any clues. other wise try stinger and all the other anti spyware tools. hijackthis and speedy is good combination as well put the xp machines firewall back to defaults and see want alerts you get back ie what programs are try to access the net |

| 578389 | 2007-08-09 13:00:00 | Good point about packet sniffing, I'd honestly not thought of that! Wonder what'd turn up in a port-scan too! I would be doing it right now, but I got home from a poker tournament and my father had formatted it. Bit gutted, but oh well. Thanks for the tips guys... next time.. im sure it wont be long ;) |
