That is people running serverbrowsers at home (tools like GameSpy ping
the servers directly).

Alfred, can you explain why when I turn on net_showudp that a wide range
of ports that are obviosly NOT serverbrowsers are turning up.
Remember I did these tests on a server that had a brand new IP address
never used for anything. so no one would have this in there programs. Of
course ASE/gamespy would eventually pick it up from the Master Server,
but it doesn't explain all the  Home PC's  I had a steady stream of udp
traffic, below is only about 1 seconds worth of copy/paste , and
according to nslookup these are all homepc's

UDP <- 64.81.227.179:63392: sz=25 OOB 'T'
UDP -> 64.81.227.179:63392: sz=88 OOB 'I'
UDP <- 217.93.234.62:1960: sz=25 OOB 'T'
UDP -> 217.93.234.62:1960: sz=88 OOB 'I'
UDP <- 67.84.228.213:1699: sz=25 OOB 'T'
UDP -> 67.84.228.213:1699: sz=88 OOB 'I'
UDP <- 68.44.15.163:1691: sz=25 OOB 'T'
UDP -> 68.44.15.163:1691: sz=88 OOB 'I'
UDP <- 68.221.252.204:50576: sz=25 OOB 'T UDP -> 68.221.252.204:50576:
sz=88 OOB 'I UDP <- 67.8.144.155:8128: sz=25 OOB 'T'
UDP -> 67.8.144.155:8128: sz=88 OOB 'I'
UDP <- 24.3.197.232:1123: sz=25 OOB 'T'
UDP -> 24.3.197.232:1123: sz=88 OOB 'I'
UDP <- 68.60.187.173:2936: sz=25 OOB 'T'
