I haven't had any on mine, but I've found out that if you disable ICMP Echo (Ping), then you get a lot less attacks.
To do that, you need a software firewall? Do you have that?

Firewalls usually don't chew up that much memory. Kerio personal firewall is free, and if you are willing to pay, then Norton Internet Security is good.

| The Syn floods are hitting your router, not your server PC. Installing those registry settings will do absolutely nothing to help you... |

| Yes, it lags your router and blocks your routers ability to accept new connections. How do you think a registry change in the software on your PC is going to update or modify the firmware in the hardware of your router ? |
