`                                                                                  `
`   Just found this in my event-log after starting emule:                          `
`   "EventID 4226                                                                  `
`   TCP/IP has reached the security limit imposed on the number of concurrent      `
`   TCP connect attempts"                                                          `
`                                                                                  `
`   This is what I get from a Microsoftie when i asked him why XPSP2 slows down    `
`   programs like emule which open many connections to different destinations:     `
`                                                                                  `
`                                                                                  `
`   "Thanks very much for responding. This new feature is one of the stack's       `
`   "springboards", security features designed to proactively reduce the           `
`   future threat from attacks like blaster and Sasser that typically spread       `
`   by opening connections to random addresses. In fact, if this feature had       `
`   already been deployed, Sasser would have taken much longer to spread.          `
`                                                                                  `
`   It's not likely to help stop the spread of spam unless spammers are            `
`   trying to reach open email relays in the same way, by opening                  `
`   connections on smtp ports of random IP addresses.                              `
`   This is new with XP SP2 and we're trying to get it right so that it does       `
`   not interfere with normal system operation or performance of normal,           `
`   legitimate applications, but does slow the spread of viral code. New           `
`   connection attempts over the limit for half-open connections get queued        `
`   and worked off at a certain (limited rate)."                                   `
`                                                                                  `
`                                                                                  `
`                                                                                  `
`                        Here it is. The patch I mean.                             `
`            Apply it and so you could live long and share and prosper!            `
