been on ntl since dinosaurs ruled the earth but just lately the amount of time my firewal goes ape beacuse my service provider is trying to basical hack my pc is getting beyond a joke.

case in example

critical intrusion detected:
[181.1] Inbound DCE BIND to potentially vulnerable RPC DCOM interface attempt detected
inetnum: 81.108.136.0 - 81.108.143.255
netname: NTL
descr: NTL Infrastructure - Baguley
country: GB
admin-c: NNMC1-RIPE

thats one of about 40 a month i get all from ntl systems all trying to get info from my computer.

info about what is my concern, are we gonna fall foul of another selling of your habits to the highest bidder.

it really bugs me that a service is provided and from that companies seem to think its ok to use your information to sell on.

now i suppose if i ask ntl they will say oh without this we cant see if your net is working correectly.. rubbish........ my firwall blocks all this stuff and its funny they know it works fine when i ring them

so anyone got any ideas if its a bad as it seems

thanks for reading
