For example, the NetBIOS Name Service (NBNS), running over UDP or TCP port 137, allows any computer to register its hostname with other computers. An attacker could contact any host and claim that they are a particular service the host regularly contacts, such as a file server.
This is a list of TCP and UDP port numbers used by protocols for operation of network applications. The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) only need one port for bidirectional traffic. TCP usually uses port numbers that match the services of the corresponding UDP implementations, if they exist, and vice versa.
The program decodes and provides the user with all NetBIOS name packets it receives on UDP port 137. Its many command line options can effectively disable a NetBIOS network and prevent computers from rejoining it. According to Sir Dystic, "NBName can disable entire LANs and prevent machines from rejoining them...nodes on a NetBIOS network ...
[citation needed] In NBT, the name service operates on UDP port 137 (TCP port 137 can also be used, but rarely is). The name service primitives offered by NetBIOS are: Add name – registers a NetBIOS name. Add group name – registers a NetBIOS "group" name. Delete name – un-registers a NetBIOS name or group name.
This often means your email address has been blocked from sending mail to a specific contact because your address has been blocked by privacy or spam control settings set by the owner of that account. Should this happen, you'll need to check with that contact to make sure you haven't been accidentally added to their blocked or spam list.
UDP is a connectionless protocol meaning that messages are sent without negotiating a connection and that UDP does not keep track of what it has sent. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] UDP provides checksums for data integrity , and port numbers for addressing different functions at the source and destination of the datagram.
If you have any combination of "AOL" in your display name, the message won't go through. It is especially important to check your Mail settings for this if your account has been recently compromised, as hackers will often change your name to make it harder for you to use your account normally even after it's secured.

If you're repeatedly getting delivery failure errors when sending messages to AOL Mail customers, it is most likely due to spam blocking on AOL's servers. While you may be following at the rules for sending mail, it's likely the address you're sending mail from is hosted on a server our system had identified as "abusive".
