Eight unknown ICMP's left my establishment last night at 1 second intervals.

ICMP payload 3f3f 3f3f with TTL 10 indicate Napster. But ICMP code and type

Then again, if that is ICMP Id 666 (029a) other things may be afoot.

Could you post tcpdump -X so nothing may be lost in the conversion?

It's the MNOPQRST seqeuence!  %^)

Anyone seeing these?  Snort sees them as "ICMP Unassigned! (Type 2)".
