The attempts to clone then were sucessful which did have an impact on my bandwidth/bb performance. My modem was then replaced after VM looked into it, I linked it up to a router and ever since I get constant attempts of these smurfs. I've cleaned all my systems with various scanners, nothing found.

I apologise first if what I say offends you.
You are a paranoid idiot who seems to have Gooled without understanding what you have found.
The adage "a little knowledge is dangerous" comes to mind.
Again, sorry if my post offends.
