Revision 1.4

Q Can someone hack into the operating code residing in my

AlphaShield™?

A No! Your AlphaShield's™ proprietary security operating program

resides in memory and cannot be altered from either the computer

or network ports on the device.

Q Does my AlphaShield™ provide NAT for single IP operation?

A No! Your AlphaShield™ does not support multiple computer opera-

tion via NAT, but will support an equal number of IP addresses to

computer connections through the AlphaShield™.

Q Can my AlphaShield™ be detected and pinged from the Internet

when in connect or disconnect mode?

A No! Your AlphaShield™ does not act like a conventional gateway

or router and does not have an IP address assignment of any type

associated with it. AlphaShield™ remains invisible to the Internet,

Intranet or connected network.

Q If my computer's IP address is known and I am connected, can it

be pinged?

A No! Your AlphaShield™ will conceal the IP address of your com-

puter by not responding to any ping requests from the outside

world. ICMP packets for the ping command are discarded.

Q Will AlphaShield™ work with ICQ or MSN Messenger?

A Yes! If you are the initiator of ICQ or MSN Messenger session.

However, if you are the intended recipient of ICQ or MSN Mess-

enger request, AlphaShield™ will deny any and all access to your

computer because this will permit unauthorized access leading to

malicious computer attacks. Peer to peer communication will not be

allowed by AlphaShield™.
