LAND Attack
My McAfee Firewall software has been blocking a ton of LAND attacks ever since I got connected to the LAN through the apartment complex I work in. I'm not really worried because they are getting blocked but is there anything I can do to track the attacker
and/report him/her. I have already notified my network admin. of the issue. Thanks. |

Ryan, I suspect that the firewalls, including those in cheap routers, are somewhat oversensitive to all kinds of things, only to pretend that they are very importantly protecting you from oh so many very bad attacks. Windows hasn't benn susceptible to LAND attacks for years, and so it doesn't make sense that anybody would run a LAND attack against you. I just don't believe it until anybody convinces me, but I've seen these warnings from routers as well. Hans-Georg -- No mail, please. |
