FTP sites located in Network Neighboorhood
Hello I have a question about some information I found in Network Neighboorhood
I have a home PC that is behind a NATed Wireless Linksys and my PC is protected via Zone Alarm. However I went to "Computers Near Me" and I found something very strange there where shortcuts to the following
ftp://ftp.nai.com and
ftp://ftp.debian.org
They where actually links to C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Net hood and I deleted them
I know that the debian is a Linux site that acutally got attacked and brought down last week. I was reading an article about it actually went to that site. I have one Virus program running and just ran an online virus program yesterday plus I am running two Spyware programs (new with Updates)
I know I need to tighten my my Wireless linksys I actaually is it possible that those sights are actaully using my Wireless link and are "on" my network. Or am I just seeing another part of my Cable modems network. This is got me puzzeled any thoughts? Thanks

If you've gone to those sites it's perfectly normal to see those shortcuts.
