Watching reject messages on firewalls lately I've seen ICMP ECHO requests from web sites somebody is visiting, trying to packets of echo 1500 octets off us. What the heck are they trying to do? I can't guess an honest excuse for websites to ping visitors. And with such large packets. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@hiwaay.net ======================================================================== Whom computers would destroy, they must first drive mad.
