recently i have started to get alot of traffic on my FW
namely protocals of UDP and ICMP but the ips are all
diffrent im on a school network and i asked them they
said it was ther "netwoork sniffing" they recently
started my prob is everytime my fw gets hit my network
pauses for a few seconds (i get hit anywhere from one per
min on up). i tryed to turn off my FW but that didnt help
i finaly turned on the windowsxp one which helped but it
still gets ping atacks every 60 somthin sec and
netbrowsing once in a while.

Is there anyway to make it so my computer does not pause
everytime this happends?
 
Configure your FW not to popup alerts when you receive ICMP packets or
UDP probes. Or uninstall your FW and use XP firewall instead.
