Yees indeed. Why that could occur is more than simple. (Sorry, 'cause i don't know how those programs work) You are looking for open ports from your network machines? Or just looking another direct ummm... connection/communication with the other computers in your "ADSL" network? Heh, are you classed as firewalled in napster? ;) In 99% of the ADSL cases, they don't actually have any open ports you see to the world, in other words look at the N #2 :) Why to give user open ports when one could easily then put up own server. Well, the ISP can make profit of that too, charge you a little, so they can open 2 maybe more ports for others to see, or even to set your machine to accept 2 way connections in whole world, that always is more or less expensive, and ISP want's to make a profit of it . Most likely, other ADSL connections are behind a certain firewall, #2 or they do have a grey IP adresses (which propably is 100% your case), so that is frustrating too in certain way... :/ Most likely also, ADSL and Dial-up connections are in different Subnet, so, therefore it could be totally inefficient to scan your own "NETWORK" which is propably full of only ADSL modems, if these above rules are true. If you do find a way or i am totally wrong, please let me know.
