ever wonder what those firewall alerts mean?
Many alerts are background noise (false positives) or script kiddies running port scanners. But this site explains a lot about port numbers and related matters. It's a bit geeky but what do you expect a geek like me to post?

There's more good stuff on the l/h side of the page.
