Ahh.. Ok. :-)Thanks. :-) Yeah... My machine at work is almost invisible. It
doesn't respond to a ping request and according to at least one on-line
checking thing, there's only a couple ports open on it... :-) so, I'm
reporting these "hits" on my shields more to let the admins know that they've
got a hacked box than anything else... :-)
