So, our network is getting flooded with Blubster traffic. It seems that whenever a user does a search through Blubster, it connects via UDP/41170 and scans local IPs and also hits 255.255.255.255. The 255 traffic is killling the network. Our Packeteer seems to be blocking some of it, but not completely. Any ideas? ------------------------------------------------------------------ Frank J.
