Re: why oh why does ntl instist on trying to get into my computer

If one address is notably probing vuylnerable port ranges, or constantly spitting at one port, then I'd report it here

Sadly, "firewall reports" are not taken seriously by many, as a lot of firewall users have hyperactive alert settings and don't bother distingushing "background noise" from what is likely to be a virus probe against everyone on the same segment or more.

The golden rule, unless YOU have upset a script kiddie somewhere, YOU are not important enough for even a novice grade hacker to bother with, though cable modem address ranges are popular with anyone looking for a trojanized system, as they would provide a fast and powerful service as the next spam delivery agent - there's **** profit in trojans now!
