Is someone trying to hack me?

Lamilia · 08-01-2006, 12:17 PM

My firewall keeps popping up and saying:
The firewalll has blocked internet access to your computer (netBIOS Session) from n-add (172.16.0.1) (TCP port 57131) (TCP flags: S)
It did it 3 times yesterday before I clicked on the more info button and it told me someone was trying to access my network then I shut down my computer so they couldnt get into my computer and now it said it 4 times already today and i've only been on for a few minutes. What do I do?

this is a private IP address from your network

sometimes this happens when you share a folder and someone tries to access it
do you share any stuff ?

uhh not that I know of my brother has a pc on the same network and we also have a family pc. Is there any way I can find out from my computer?

yes
to find out what folders did you share
goto Control Panel>Administrative Tools>Computer Management
then inside Computer Management
Computer Management(Local)>System Tools>Shared Folders>Shares
Ignore everything with $ beside it
anything else is considered a share by you

all thats there is IPC$. I dunno it's not saying its blocking it anymore I guess I should check when it is doing it right?

if you didn't find any shares now
you wont find any later
this shows you a list of the folders YOU marked as shared
