I have a software for web filtering ( websense ). All URL requests are sent
to the server which then determines if the site is to be allowed or
blocked. When this happens i get  spp_portscan2 alerts on my snort console.
How can i filter out this alert? I am running snort on windows 2000. Thanks
in advance.

Regards
