I wonder if anyone can help me with this problem. I often go into a chatroom
where there is a particular person who takes it upon himself to eject people
from the room. It is not his chatroom and he has no connection whatsoever
with the owner of the chatroom. I have found out that how he does it is by
increasing the baud rate to my modem thereby causing it to freeze and eject
me from the chatroom. I have a Zone Alarm Firewall on my PC.

Firstly would he be able to do this if I was connected via ADSL? Secondly is
there any software that could stop this happening? I would appreciate any
assistance on this matter as it is not just me that he is evicting

Thanks

Sandra
