What the hell is that?
How can i avoid it?
Is there any risks if i didn't have kasper internet security installed, should i raise the anti hacker settings to high?

When do you receive these alerts most often? (Browsing X site, downloading, etc.)

Downloading from public torrent sites.

Could be a bunch of false positives, then. I had the exact same issue with torrents and eMule, Outpost, and a supposed "short fragments" attack.

Just disregard them and move along. Do use an IP filter, though.

@ET do you try using the latest AV. Like for KIS you get 2011 now. They can also be false detections. Try with the recent version of KIS and see whether it still continues.

I'm sure now it wasn't false detections, it was a torrent i was seeding and apparently some people want this torrent to die, after deleting that one, no attacks have been detected.
New KIS doesn't have a patch making it work for more than 2000 days without having to look for pirated keys every day.
Btw, kis 2011 was blocking utorrent p2p connections, did they fix this error?

Yeah it works now. Prior we had to add the Bit-torrent client to exclusions via KIS settings but now not required
