Hi abangmamat, Thank you for posting. You can protect against these types of attacks by using Windows or a third party firewall. To see if you are vulnerable to a SYN attack you can perform the following. 1. Click Start and then Run. 2. In the run window type "CMD" and press "OK"3. In the command prompt window type : netstat -n -p tcp Look at the output for entries in a state of SYN_RECEIVED. If you notice multiple entries, your system is vulnerable to attack. Hope this helps.
