Hi,
I am a lurker and thought that I musht interject at this point. I am
a network engineer just an fyi. The UDP box is not your problem. UDP
in layman's terms provides a connectionless, unreliable transport
service and is generally used in one way communications that use
broadcast or multicast IP datagrams. These are usually associated
with internet gaming as there is NO guarantee of the packet arriving
to its destination. Applications that use UDP must supply there own
reliability mechanisms. I hope this helps with your UDP question...
Regards,
Eric

Hi, I hit the download button on the Windows media player website.
An icon with a program did not download. A document with code only
downloaded.Do I need to turn off my firewall to receive the icon
and program to unstuff an install?
I'm new to OS X Tiger. In the Sharing Preference, I have Network
Time checked; and, in the Advanced settings, I have marked Enable
Stealth Mode and Enable FireWall Logging. I did not mark Block UDP
Traffic. Not sure what that is.
I'm looking a the the Firewall Log. Looks like there are many
entries. Haven't had a chance to read the O'reilly book that goes
with OS X Tiger yet.
I'm wondering what UDP means and its significance. Any light
someone can shed on all this would be helpful. There is a live
radio program on the Internet I want to listen to but I need the
windows media player, evidently.
Thanks.
Jocelyn
PS I have a new G4 iBook.
