    Overnetlite Sending Emails?

    My firewall notified me of overnetlite trying to send an email, so I checked the IP address it was trying to connnect to. I thought it would be the overnet site but it seems to be a home ADSL connection in belgium???

    Overnetlite Sending Emails?

    some overnet clients and emule clients have there ports set to a mail server port rather than the pre-allocated 4662 port which is the default port..
    this comes up quite often with Zone Alarm as your firewall..what F/wall are you using?

    Hope that helped

    Yup I'm using zone alarm. I've checked the logs but it doesnt say which port it tried to access. Your probably right though. I know people sometimes have to change their ports to avoid ISP blocking.

    Thanks for the help, I'll calm down with the paranoia now! :lol:
