Does anyone have any idea why Kaspersky's firewall occasionally (but regularly) reports that it has blocked a network attack, when I am using FTP Mount on OS4 (over a local network) to access a FileZilla FTP server on my PC?
It has done this for at least a year or two. The IP address is clearly my Amiga, and the port numbers range from about 50000 to 50099 (seemingly at random). It happens about once per minute when heavily using FTP Mount (say to compare files).
The FileZila FTP server listens on port 21, of course.
EDIT: From browsing FileZilla's settings, I just discovered that "Passive mode settings" has "Use custom port range" set to "50000 to 50100"... So the next question is, how do I stop it the problem? Would unticking "use custom port range" be sufficient & safe?
