One of the boards I used regularly sent me an email.
Account suspended through 5 failed logon attempts. It wasn't me, I was not even in the house !).
Attempted logon came from 62.252.64.31 which is
lutn-cache-10.server.ntli.net
the DCHP server I am actually using is close to the address (.21) and is
lutn-sacmdhcp-1b.server.ntli.net
My IP address is, of course, miles away from either of these (and the lease has been valid from 11 a.m today).

This is all very strange - and slightly worrying...

Any light anyone ?

(please bear in mind I am not a network bod.)

(its my day for creating threads apparently...)

P.S. yep have run the usual checks for naughty software virii etc.
