I run Mac OSX & Stealth is turned on when firewall is running. It does not affect LW or Azureus.
Perhaps that does not exactly answer your question, not sure. |
I appreciate your response. I'm really trying to figure out how a person is tracked when on Limewire. If you download a pic, does there have to be virus or spyware along with the pic, in order for someone to track what you downloaded?
Can my firewall keep me from being tracked when downloading a file?
And. I just wondered if using a "STEALTH" port for my listening port would help the above.
