LinLog

My Linksys wireless router has a handy feature whereby you can configure it to send you an e-mail of its logs every time they fill up. For the first five months I had it, I only got one of these e-mails. Now, however, I'm getting a couple every day.

A quick perusal of the log messages reveals that the vast majority of the entires are from various systems attempting to send packets on UDP ports between 1025 and 1029. A few Google searches reveal that this is most likely Windows messenger spam. Of course, this isn't a problem for me, because I don't have any Windows machines anymore and because the router blocks those ports anyway, but it's still annoying.

I should proably look into that a little more closely and see what's actually going on. But on the other hand, since the only adverse effect has been clogging my router logs, do I really care enough to worry about it?
