Actually, someone did hack my system, and used FINDFAST to scan for files. They had open a .MPG movie I had made from my digital camera. Here's my setup: Win98SE with internet sharing enabled. I have a local net and am trying to share the DSL connection amongst my various machines. The DSL modem has a fixed IP and is always connected. The intruder came in to the host machine and ran FINDFAST and was accessing the MPG. I caught all this a day later. I guess their connection got hung. I used NETWATCH to discover the connection, and what files they were looking at. Seeing this, I looked over my system and found FFASTUN.* in both root directories of my C and D drive. All files had the same time/date stamp when the intrusion occured. This matched the connection time reported by NETWATCH. So, Windows 98 SE with internet sharing is allowing people to hack into systems from the outside. I don't have a web server running, so I'm not sure what services they were using to access my file system. I did have the C and D drives setup with full read/write shares! Ack, not again! ...Doug
