Hello krymson, I wont trust the logs of Norton Firewall (i dont trust Norton Firewall at all, but thats another issue), so i would let a sniffer run, i think wireshark can be configured to log only connectins to 49152. Since Norton is embeded in Windows, i guess, when Norton or another in-windows-implemented software try to phone home that way, wont be logged. -- Best regards, Adam Pal Wednesday, November 29, 2006, 4:46:34 PM, you wrote: <==============Original message text=============== kgc> Do you turn off any BitTorrent clients before you play kgc> Quake?
