Is there something I can do to find out what kind of traffic is going on. Perhaps somebody who is trying to get access to my computer?
When you're logged into Skype, your system is essentially attached to a p2p network. So, even when you're not engaged in a call, traffic on that network is passing through your system. To confirm this, you can log out and close Skype to see if the network activity drops off. If you log back on and the activity reappears, that answers your question. If you want to take a look at the traffic, you can take a snapshot with Ethereal. "man ethereal" or Google for more information. regards, Carl
