<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">It may be possible for people to discover your IP address, but they could still not hack into your computer while it is off. And if you are behind a good firewall, then they can't really hack into your computer very well anyways.

Imperator Fyron, I really appreciate the info, it just shows you how gulible us non literate computer junkies are http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif , But, l Last question, I was told that firewalls don't always let information, Messages, etc thru, is that true?

capnq, your screwdriver is ordered, enjoy, hope your not driving

Tesco - You think Carolina could get by Detroit or Colorado? I think not. Although I hope the Leafs will make it to the final, I won't expect any miracles if they do.

Ok...slightly better chance against Colorado...Roy has been less than stellar this playoff run (minus game 7 vs SJ).

Mac:
Most of the time, it doesn't block the tasks you want to do. Occasionally, the firewall can block certain ports that programs may need. This usually occurs with chat programs (mostly when transfering files) and internet-capable games.

Oh no, double whammy.

Having lost my faith over the weekend and rediscovered sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll, I was looking forward to getting the Fabulous Ferocious Felicitous Fantastic Fast-fingered Frenzied Fighting Furry Felines of the Growltigga Alliance over to Mephisto.

Unfortunately, the Tigga mainframe has expired, and my work laptop's CD-ROM has also shuffled off this mortal coil.

This kmeans I can't get my race to Esel this week, and as I am going to be out of the country for the rest of the week and on holiday next week, I am not going to be around to get my PC fixed.

Please can I ask every one's forgiveness for delaying the game and being a right royal pain up the jacksy.

I dont apologixze to Gryphin however as he is a big girl.

Adieu, farewell, auf wiedersehn, goodbye,, adioos, sayonara, see yer cobbler etc

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

I went for my first bike ride of the year.

So if you don't hear from me for a week it is because in am too tired.

A winter of icehockey did not prepair me for that .

i am exhausted.

And I only biked 10 KM

So I would like a drink to ponder the aging body.

Re: Ye Olde Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina
 

Mac its called port forwarding.

I highly recommend that you pick up a router like the Linksys 4 port hub

Or something like that.

At least use the free Version of zone alarm.

But... before you set them up or decide to follow that path read up on them.

Also you can always ask any questions here or private message.

You might upset your kids if you lock down all the ports.

I would like to see the blue and white raise the silver. They will win game 6.
