NT is not forwarding packets, it is generating them. "fw" is firewall,
not forward. What you are seeing are subnet broadcasts (.127) for
netbios (port 137) and all hosts broadcasts (255.255.255.255) for bootp
(port 68). Change your firewall rules to ignore these packets instead
of logging them. AFAIK, there is nothing you can do to Mickeysoft to
stop these packets, short of a flamethrower.
