is this normal


Recommended Posts

i have the XP firewall on and i have never seen anything like this before.. notice how the..umm.. watchmacallit? umm the SCROLL BAR!!, yeah notice how tiny it is.. all that is MSN messenger all the way down to the bottom of the list except for the other option like .. HTTP and TELNET

recently i've also had trouble where messenger keeps signing out.. constantly every second it signs out signs back in and signs back out.. it's starting get people on my list pretty angry.

:cry: :argh: :argh: .. ok still didn't work but this is what happened.. there were 4 left as you can see and when you double click it shows who is accessing that port.. every single time it shows "vice" (computer name) but for the MSN ones it would show my IP address that i had about an hour ago. i get a diff one every 3 hours..

i don't know what's going on i don't know if that changes with the change of my ip addy or not.. so i changed it to "vice" but still not working.

my whole connection seems to be wacked.. my upload is only 1.6kilobytes per sec. right now.

well, it's not going to hurt if you delete them :yes: the only one you'd need is tcp 6891 for file transfers, the rest should be recreated if they need to be.

i deleted all of them, and saw if it created any and it hasn't yet. been about 10 hours (was asleep) but now it seems to be working fine.. i've been logged on for about 6 minutes with no problems so far and my upload speed is back up..

i still suspect adelphia has something to do with this. :crazy:

no they don't.

upnp is a service that's used by applications on your local computer.

you isp has nothing to do w/ this.
