port scan attacks
« on: February 08, 2011, 05:24:07 AM »
Hi

lately happens that, being connected through bolehroute (tunnelblick), the firewall (virusbarrier X6) collects port scan attacks. Do I have to worry about? thanks

I attest to this. When using Bolehroute via Tunnelblick, my Firewall log(Who's there) went on a frenzy.
Even SMB and other critical ports were logged. I don't even use Bolehroute due to this, for security concerns.

I just use the US/Canada surfing streaming, I don't do torrents so I don't need the other routes/services. Main concern for me is anonymity, security and privacy.

bolehroute and US/CA surfing have the same security level
