Re: Blocking Kazaa

Above is an online port scanner. It scans for Kazzaa openings(among other
things). It seems to think that Kazzaa is open always on 1214. As I said before
I am not sure as I do not use Kazzaa. If you find anything out about this I
will gladly write up something on my web site to show other users how to block
Kazzaa as it seems to come up alot.

Thanks
