I need some seriuos network help...

[zombie]

About a month ago my security pointed out I have an ARP cache poisoning. I've used my computer carefully, and have no issues. What this is , is a Man in the Middle attack. It's very rare on home computers as it is difficult to establish, and you really don't know what gain it will provide till you start reading packets. Anyway I have been trying to delete the ARP entry but it persists on start up. It's a web based attack. So what I did was turn the tables... Here is a screen shot of the attackers info I pulled last night.


I'm not gonna tell you what I did with the user names, and pass codes. I am on a dynamic ISP so I need to stay dynamic. I just need to block this ARP entry... Any Ideas?

I should know about this kinda sh** but you lost me at ARP bro...

I like to pretend to my 15 yr old son that i know wtf im talking about but as soon as he mentions Virtual Drives and sh** i just laugh and walk away muttering "i paid for your bloody virtual drive you little......" under my breath 

Think he thinks im retarded and he feels sorry for me so cut me some slack. He knows if its mechanical or requires some kinda hand or power tool then im his man tho.

save all the info you need on your pc and try doing a factory reboot .sometimes that well take care of everything . you may have to redown load a few things your self after that but you should be all good.



you said you us your computer  saftly..... Dont beleave that man sorry you already showed us some of your monkey porn.................

this is why i absolutely hate any thing microsoft;;;;the same scammers and hackers who create the problems are the very same ones selling you downloads to remove the problems.....i had a very similar registry error issue which would cause an image on my pc makeing it virtually impossible to use the computer...mine was an xp problem....you may try re-booting ......to a prior date (previous to when the problem emerged) or do what i did.....purchased "stopzilla"....which actually worked.....good luck....

..if you can save all your valued data, then yeah a factory reformat of your drive(s) will eliminate the issue...

..and, it may be possible to restore your machine to an earlier date as well..

..just dont forget to save any potentially lost data before...

..have you ever expanded peerblock's database?

I'm just curious as to why someone would ask this question, here. Not that there aren't IT folx who hang out, here (I'm a former one, myself, w/20+ years experience), but... it just seems a bit like asking about a computer problem in a scooter forum, to me.  ;)

XP Pro SP-3  Eset smart security firewall. I've tried several apr blockers but they are not the answer. I tried assigning a static arp but it gets overridden by the dynamic one. I know the source computer, and have sniffed a few packets to get the mac address. I have the same access as he has on mine but I cant break his connection. I'm beginning to think a re install of the OS is easier. Even that takes me 8-12 hrs of reinstalling software/correcting settings ect.
Any suggestions are welcome. I learn quickly...

Stopzilla is a GREAT idea. It has a root kit scanner, and has helped me in the past. I'd forgotten about them. This is something harder to find than a virus by far. I know it's in MY system. I should have just run in VM ware like a ten year old would have done... I get lazy sometimes.
