hello everyone,
i have read some topics and i have seen that IDM spams emails.....but the really bad thig is that they hack other systems also.
I have the McAfee 2005 firewall and it is always telling me that IDM users are trying to get through my pc(they r attempting to access ports used for file sharing,but they are blocked by the McAfee firewall).....the AMAZING thing in this firewall is that it has a SYSTEM TRACKER,which tells you from what country,IP address and even the informations of these hackers(probably these are their fake information like their names,location etc...)......i don't know if IDM support these hackers,since their IP address show these hakers are clients,not from the server....but the sure thing is they are related to IDM (form their IP),and from their information provided by McAfee,which provides their location:
SEE BELOW an example of ONE of the attacks and tell me what do you think...these fools probably don't know that there are such firewall programs that can track them and reveal their info:

Hi,

This is a very common thing. It happens on many networks. Sometimes it is because the network is badly set and not maintained very well. Whatever the reasons, you should ALWAYS use a good firewall when you are connected to the Internet. WinXP's firewall is not bad for stopping incoming calls, but it doesn't show you the alert window, and it doesn't check the outgoing activities... For your info, some of the best firewalls in 2006 are ZONE ALARM PRO and OUTPOST FIREWALL (for advanced users). I guess MacAfee is not too bad. (Many firewall are set by default to show many secondary alerts so you feel they are being useful).
