The PC running Lanspy was wired into a combo modem/router, a speedtouch
variant known as a BT Home Hub( regrettably my Linksys has just died on
me). As there had been several mentions of Lanspy recently one of the
family decided to try to see if it could see all of the computers on the
network, he wasn't interested in actual traffic, and he found he could
not see one laptop. Rather than try to find out why he ditched the
program and went off with the Laptop. Out of curiosity I decided to run
some checks this morning to see why the Laptop hadn't been seen. |
