Suspicious n/a network activity

Oct 19, 2005 8 Replies

Hello folks,



Recentrly i noticed that Agnitums Outpost Pro v3 firewall of mine very often shows to me the following network activity of an n/a process.



n/a stands for not identified process? why not identified if so? Is it something suspicious? Should i block it? How can i get more info about it?



n/a TCP local:10.0.0.1 2295 83.142.183.124 4661 Allow activity for application emule.exe OUT 4:27:28 ìì 10 sec(s) 82 Bytes 160 Bytes 22 Bps ---


thank you but i think ill need some transalation to that :-)

n/a means that whatever the first data point represents is not present in the packet.

emule is an open source peer-2-peer program.

You'd get much more help if you'd quote some of what you need translation for.

-Russ.

well it was3 lines of text that why i didnt quote :-)

Are you implying suspicious activity from emule?

Please exaplin in a greater detail

Tahnk you. i see

i have only 1 pc and i run emule. i just dont understand why it characterizing the converstaion as n/a

See, we're not in a converstation across the table at each other, you shouldn't expect anyone to remember what was written in any other message.

But anyway, it looks like the emule.exe program is running, and it's generating that activity. If you don't care that folks run emule in your network, then I guess you're ok.

-Russ.

Well, what does your other activity show in the first field?

-Russ.

Just the name of the process that startes this activity for example shareaza.exe
