- don't know to ALLOW or block permanently popup from firewall
- Posted by bently on January 22nd, 2006
My firewall gives mea popup that has ...
22.211.255.7, port 46143 wants to send me a UDP datagram to port 1026
owned by Generic Hosp Process for Win 32 Services" on your computer.
Details about application . c:\windows\system32\svhost.exe
I do not know what it is, so I click DENY.
It is persistant and has popped up 7 times so far. I know I can check
"creat appropriate filter and don't ask again", but I don't know if it
is valid and needed or not.
Can anyone tell me what this may be.
Thanks
bently

Hi,
This is probably an attempt to send messenger spam.
See: http://www.linklogger.com/UDP1026.htm
http://www.lurhq.com/popup_spam.html
http://grc.com/port_1026.htm
I would block that traffic and watch for any problems whch may arise. You
can always undo the block.
Hope this helps,
Don
