who is this person? its not the server because over half of my 400+ users that have accessed my computer is this person, they're running under the ip of 131.151.191.95, and it only acceses your ocmputer once to see whats on it correct?

I looked at his netwatcherpro user list and there were 556 at the time in the connectED list, most of which were SEEK42. The SEEK42 computer was pinging his machine every 5 minutes (not an exageration, it was almost to the second). Anyway, I don't know if it is still doing it, I think he used Ryan's link to opt in again. We will see tomorrow, or later today, or whatever.

That's some pretty ingenius investigative sleuthing. However, you would have found the answers that you are looking for in the link I posted above, had you actually read it.

Actually I was copying a file off his system. However he clearly felt he didn't have enough going on in his life and posted about this experience here.

he didnt post the link for you to opt in again, he wants you to READ the terms of entry.

Opting-in means the following:
You can access this web site. Any public smb shares on your computer may be listed on this site. The Seek42 server will attempt get a list of the files you have publicly shared. This listing will occur during off peak hours (12am-3pm) and no more than once a day. You will soon be able to customize the time and frequency of the share listing via the User Preferences page. The Seek42 server will send an itty-bitty packet to your computer every 5-10 minutes to determine whether your computer is on or off. These packets are not special and are considered background traffic. (you probably get 20 a minute or so from other computers on your floor/house). Seek42 keeps track of this information to ensure that only files on powered-up computers are listed. (technical details at the bottom) Your name/computer name/campus email may be listed (i.e. the red dot/DIPS) near the your files that are returned on the results page. In the near future you will be able to hide this information via the user preferences page. You may receive an even smaller packet whenever someone visits the "Gamescan" page. This determines whether or not you are hosting any network games on your computer. (details at the bottom)
