I' m not sure if I need packet analyzer or another tool. I can see network activity on my dsl modem led. Right before I switched to Gentoo, my windows box has died for a couple of days ( it had no firewall). It was bunch of viruses, worms and god knows what else. When I turned firewall, it blocked endless probes. I suspect the same thing hapening now. Aside from I need a firewall ( and I deliberatly do not install one,) how can I track an activities that generate that traffic?
Thanks.
