Agreed. There are a variety of things that cause Windows to make unexpected Windows networking connection attempts to remote machines. Many of these things use the Anonymous account or the Windows machine account (a series of alphanumeric characters with a $ dollar sign). If the logins use these accounts and no others, there is not very much a person could see or do using just these accounts alone. kind regards, Karl Levinson http://securityadmin.info --------------------------------------------------------------------------- This list is sponsored by: ByteCrusher Detect Malicious Web Content and Exploits in Real-Time.
