Some background. These packets, TCP or UDP, are means by which one computer program communicates with another. For example, as you browse the Web TCP packets are being sent to (and from) your Web Browser to (and from) the web servers. Other applications may send or receive packets as well. To differentiate the various applications they use something called a port. IP Address = building address. Port = apartment number. Imagine there is an apartment building. To find out if someone lives in an apartment you could send each apartment a letter with a SASE. If you get a reply you can safely say someone lives there. In geek speak we call this probing. These computers all over the world are probing to find out if an application is on that port. If there is one they will now send a identification probe to find out what specific application is on that port. From there they can craft a specific probe to take over the application [1]. Once that is accomplish they can attempt taking control of your computer. But why ? There are two main reasons: 1. they are viruses trying to infect another machine 2. they are botnets (robotic networks) trying to add another machine to their group. Botnets are use for: a. capturing user information for identity theft b. massive spam senders c. dissemination of illicit material d. aiding in attacking computer resources (distributed denial of service) A majority of the botnets are under control of criminal organization who rent these computers out. It is estimated that over 60% of PC around the world are under the control of at least one botnet [2]. Your firewall is the first line of defense in protecting your computer. Hopefully this helps. et [1] this is the reason to keep your computer security updated. [2] it takes about 12 mins for a brand new (unsecured) PC to be taken over by a botnet after it is plug into the Internet.

outdoor sex in Ottawa
etasman2000 replied to Carrie Moon's topic in General Discussion Area - all of Canada
Her quote was regarding making out in the car. The term making out is quite ambiguous. What are the boundaries here ? DFK is ok ? No nudity ? Guess it might boil down to what is socially acceptable for public display of affection..... -

Body art.....I like them when they fit a person. For me any tats have the significant that ta moko do to the Maori. Tats that tell a story or have great meaning will always be beautiful regardless of how large or discreet they are. The I-got-it-cause-I-was-drunk tats I can do without seeing. heh. -

errr......there is no immunization shots for dengue fever. There are some experimental shots in development, afaik trial only started recently. There is actually no known medication for dengue fever, treatment is supportive i.e. they hope you don't die before your body can shake it off by itself. Why bring up this nasty illness ? Florida. Florida started having confirmed cases of dengue fever after many years of no incidents.
