Down the hallway we have a computer technician that is running Zone Alarm.
He is complaining that ZoneAlarm is blocking queries from our machines on
the Net Bios ports. I many not remember the port numbers exactly but it was
something like 137-139. He thought that our computers have been taken over
by a worm, because his Zone Alarm log file is 90% full of our computers.
Are we ok or have we been infected by a worm? I installed Zone Alarm on our
systems and it is not flagging anything unusual and we are running the
latest version of Mcaffee Virus Scan as well as Adaware.
I would like to know if we have a problem.
TIA,
Pete
