Question for the experts... Does Port Explorer use MS LSP in it's code? Is there any inherent danger or harm in this? Thanks, B
Yes it uses an LSP for port-to-process mapping under Windows 95/98/ME (Port Explorer is the only port-to-process mapper available for those operating systems). The LSP is also used to provide packet-sniffing capabilities, if you choose to use them. No Microsoft code was used though, Jason will explain later. No. Layered Service Providers are a valid Winsock extension. Best regards, Wayne
Actually, no Microsoft sample code was used in Port Explorer's LSP. Though I did look at the sample once, I decided to write the LSP from scratch to avoid some of the design issues it had.
