The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

A process on my PC is connecting to another PC that I have nothing to  do with.  How do I stop this?

Asked by imherson in Windows Network Security, Windows XP Operating System, Operating Systems Network Security

Tags: , ,

I recently installed MS Port reporter and found that my PC regularly establishes a connection to a server on our network that I have nothing to do with.  I want to find out what process is doing this or/ and prevent it from happening.  I am a LAN administrator and have not configured any client process that should connect with this server.

Below is  what I see in port reporter.  My PC is 142.105.2.21.  The server which I should have nothing to do with is  142.105.96.112

Process ID: 4 (System)

System Process

PID      Port            Local IP      State             Remote IP:Port
