Default Steam Powered

Every time my neighbor (we are on the same LAN) connects with Steam to play
CS port 80 gets blocked for about 3 mins. This is odd since Steam don't
use port 80.
At the same time i cought this exploit
http://www.snort.org/snort-db/sid.html?id=2382 (ASN.1 Library exploit)
comming from the same machine.

Virusscan came up with nothing (AVG)

My next thought is; might this machine be "hijacked"?

SP2 and all security patched applied..

GNU/Linux - built from scratch, No Need for SP2 and security patches.

First I don't believe your neighbour is stupid.

Second why post to a linux group if the problems is windows based?
