    what is happening with CLOUDFLARENET

    Here is a translated log entry I got guys.
    NetRange: 108.162.192.0 - 108.162.255.255
    CIDR: 108.162.192.0/18
    OriginAS: AS13335
    NetName: CLOUDFLARENET
    NetHandle: NET-108-162-192-0-1
    Parent: NET-108-0-0-0-0
    NetType: Direct Assignment

    Now I have a list of blocked ip's and this log entry is just a sample they were all blocked.
    A series of 3 applications that tried for these sites as follows:

    12:57:04 PM SANDBOXIECRYPTO.EXE OUT TCP 108.162.232.8 80 Blocked by IP Blocklist 0 0
    1:01:14 PM SVCHOST.EXE OUT TCP 108.162.232.5 80 Blocked by IP Blocklist 0 0
    1:31:44 PM SYSTEM OUT UDP 108.162.232.8 137 Blocked by IP Blocklist 0 0

    Any clues as to what and why is going on here?

    I know that cloudflarenet is an anti DofS for hosts. But why is my system trying to send packets to it?

    TY! Great link.... new concerns...

    Yes! It seems the host protection sites we all hope work right for our hosts and ISP's aren't 100%!

    Not a surprise.

    My set up sending packets to Cloudflare is no doubt them checking me out!
