I have recently upgraded to W2K and updated Blackice.

I am now seeing, on a fairly regular basis - but not every time I log
in, UDP Port probes from ntp.demon.co.uk (158.152.1.76).

I expect, and get Blackice to ignore the SMTP probes from the punts (I
collect mail using POP3).

What are the UDP probes for - everything seems to work ok.

Regards
