Setting up a firewall-- a piece of hardware or software that blocks
unauthorized users from breaking into your computer or computer
network-- is a plausible solution. WinGate
is a software-based proxy
server that doubles as a firewall. Therefore, it not only keeps
intruders out, but allows you to extend Internet accessibility to all
the computers on your network. A six-user license for WinGate
Standard, the version positioned towards small businesses, costs
about $140 (and as little as $20 for a single, home user license).
Another solution might be Lockdown2000.
This software detects
when someone tries to infiltrate your system using NetBus, Back
Orifice, or other Trojan horse planting tools and hacking strategies.
Lockdown2000 immediately disconnects the hacker and even tells
you his IP address so that you can notify his ISP what he's up to.
Version 2.5 of Lockdown2000 costs $99 but is free for a 10-day trial
period.
