Carolyn, Are you testing from an XP box with ICF on? That would explain it.

Wow! I have received back alot of great advice and information. At this point, I am going to use a sniffer, and also try netcat, and see what the results are. Nmap was configured with just the default options (one question that was asked of me). Sorry I didn't give any specs on the system... The operating system is actually XP Embedded; the firewall that is being used on the system is the Internet Connection Firewall. I cannot add software to the system - mainly because how it is built for the OS. However, I can turn off the firewall, and plan on testing a theory to see if the firewall might be the source of the behavior. FTP is definately not running on that system - so it is very curious. Guaranteed, I will let you know the results of my testing. Thank you, Carolyn. _________________________________________________________________ Get reliable access on MSN 9 Dial-up. 3 months for the price of 1!
