tmg Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 Hi,Since upgrading to 1.8 my router firewall lists hosted applications like:• svchost (192.168.0.200:1648) 4294 UDP• svchost (192.168.0.200:2169) 6600 UDPas well as the usual utorrent TCP & UDPis this normal or is something odd going on?I normally delete these firewall 'holes' after torrent session to cover my tracks (in case the boss looks!) and there is startig to be a lot of them.

Firon Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 Why would you want to? It's not torrent-specific, it's a global thing (it's an ipv6 tunnel provided by microsoft, basically). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmg Posted August 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 Hi,Im a newbie to this sort of thing , can it be used by anti-p2p to spy on you, especially as they seem unable to distinguish between legal and illegal torrent downloads?I'm just concerned about holes in firewalls (perhaps I'm to paranoid?)regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
