| Network (in)Security Interesting hacks and cracks. Info on firewalls, TCP/IP, encryption, networks, and security. The ins and outs of the phone system, caller services, how things work, what's illegal and what's not, cellular phones, beepers, telephony legislation, the PUC, ISDN, taps, who's listening, and switches. Talking about phones, hacking systems, technical advice, and such is completely LEGAL in the United States -- it's covered by the First Amendment. What's illegal is conspiracy to commit a crime. So if you say something like "Meet me at 2am so we can crack a can" or "I changed my cell phone's number myself" you are criminally liable. Stating "You can crack a can by doing thus-and-so" or "If you wanted to change a cell phone's number, you could do it like so" is perfectly OK. Posting passwords, calling card numbers, or credit card numbers is forbidden on this network. Posting such info will get you booted off the net. |

Residential Gateway??
So i connected to a local (unsecured) wireless network using windows xp. anyways i left my pc running downloading files for a couple hours and came back to find that a residential gateway and "shared docs" was now on my computer in the new location called "network places". how and why did this happen? is this a security issue?
i also checked the open ports on my pc and 7,11,19,21,80,110 are all open. are any of these an issue? btw i do have an ftp server up. its just a new pc and i didn't expect all of these ports to be open and i didn't expect a residential gateway to be on it when i got home...?
thanks in advance.
peace

21 is obviously open due to your ftp server...not sure about rest though.
