I've been using ZoneAlarm, spybot, ad-aware, & updated NAV, but
I still get a a fair amount of unexplainable activity, also,
that I sure would like to know what program is responsible for
this activity, & what the programs gets, or sends, and lastly
where it is going. ZoneAlarm does handle some of this but it
would put me more at ease knowing what the heck is actually
going in or out of my machine, or is it someone elses? I thought
I read a while back that there are 'sniffer' programs to find
out what's happening. Anything about these? If so, what and
where, please!
