Streaming Client, Perhaps?
-
I repaired some virus damage last week on a client's network. All was working well when I left, but today the report reached me that the dialup networking status box is reporting three times as much outgoing traffic as incoming. That's a new one on me! This cutsomer is reluctant to spend actual money to renew his subscription for NAV, despite the low cost, and I am unwilling to spend any more time on this problem until he does, but I'm still curious to discover what might cause this symptom. The only suspicious thing I found on the system was Napster. I know that they're defunct, but could his network still be sharing files over that link? What else could cause this inversion of incoming/outgoing packets? I've gone to find myself. If I should get back before I return, please keep me here.
