I note my firewall alerts have gotten much shorter since I told my PC to not acknowledge, send or receive anything whatsoever from the Asia Pacific range of IP numbers, i.e., 61.0.0.0 - 61.255.255.255. Also ruled out was Comcast Cable Wireless in the 67.160.0.0 - 67.174.255.255 range and Qwest in the 67.0.0.0 - 67.7.255.255 range. No discernible negative side effects on connectivity or email from locking them out so far. I might have something here. I am thinking of adding RR to the list. As this is a standalone PC I am still debating the wisdom of fully closing the ports at 1434, 901, and 17300 as was done to 135 and 445. What do you all think?
