Thanks for the prompt replies
Wonder why my checkpoint firewall wants to talk to them? Its using both ICMP
and udp port 137 (netbios?)
and it's not a broadcast
We certainly don't have anything to do with PDS as a company. Never heard of em
my 'real' (TIC) firewall blocked these transmissions anyways
Cheers
