Re: What's on 4662 ?

[Erick Staal <elstaal () xs4all nl>]

Hi,

The application the scans are searching for is an app call e-Donkey. This 
some sort of file-sharing system. For who also encountered these scans and 
want to know more:
http://www.edonkey2000.com.

I can't make out if your scans were done with malicious intent however. As 
eDonkey looks like a 'genuine' application and not a Trojan port and I 
haven't looked for exploits on eDonkey.

eDoney is according to the abovementioned website available for windows and 
Linux.

Sincerely, Erick
