It sounds someone is able to write a possible new Umit application...
What you guys think about a personal NIDS (using UMPA)?

It seems you are friend of statistical analysis. So, let me point out one idea:
    - It is possible to that my machine is being attacked by a port-scan?
    - Even if the only information I have is the port's time access?
