In Reply to: I have a couple of questions on this posted by Wayne on August 29, 2001 at 17:03:53:
Question 1;
Your dynamin IP wil usually come from the same subnet or group of subnets when you sign on.
They may not be idetical, but they may be similar.
If you post through AOL, it comes through a proxy server. Your IP will be hidden.
Qusetion 2;
My computer at home is probed by hackers several times a day.
They are looking anyway.
The diver.net sever is probed many times a day, mostly spamers looking for an open relay.
If you have a good firewall, you should be safe.
But alas, 100% saftey never exists, in networks or diving.
