I don't see this error message in my 3.5 version. It only happena after I upgraded. It is on a cable connection but I am not sure if there is anything to do with it. Question: #1. Where are these ARP coming from? #2. Is there anything wrong with my setup? #3. How do I disable it if there is no danger to security? Any help would be greatly appreciated. -- Pierre \\|// (o o) +-------------------------oOOo-(_)-oOOo-----------------------------+ EMail : mailto:pccb(at)yahoo(dot)com PGP Key : http://www.pchiu.com/pgpkey.txt PGP Fingerprint: 949E 0F39 422D 53EA F463 8C06 9E07 5078 838B 4D20 +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ The data on your hard drive is out of balance.
