Hi All, Last Friday I'm setting idle on YtMag while messing with some new play toys Santa broght me when I get a Intrusion Alert from McAfee Firewall 8000 askng if I want to allow or deny the intrusion. Of course I choose to Deny. I get a second request ten minutes latter, same response. I have XP home set up with a Adminerstator with user accounts. I'm on YtMag with a user account. User accounts doesn't have premission to change system settings. So I brag to the wife that McAfee firewall 8000 just saved me a huge headache. I then logged off as a user and logged on as the administrator and found that this intrusion had set up there own user account with administrator rights!!! The account was named APY.net, I tried tracing apy.net but got no where as it just kept coming back as my own ISP. So far I think thats all that was affected as I deleted the bogas user account then did a cold boot with no ill effects upon reboot, so far thats is! Needless to say I'm disappointed in XP and McAfee firewall 8000! Just wanted to give a heads up and see if anyone has heard of apy.net ? T_Bone
