Fyi, I have found most of the attempts to be different everyday and have come to the realization that paying attention to all the attempted probes/attacks on my PC is way too time consuming especially considering BI is doing its job of fending off attackers. The only thing I will do if I get a persistant prober is I will trace their IP using the following program and usually he or she gets the clue I'm aware of their doings and tend to disappear. NetLab (says Win95, but also works in Win98) hotfiles.zdnet.com Also, if you end up getting an attack with a higher severity rating, consider sending the log to their ISP. Its usually an email address like this *abuse@offenders ISP here.com* (i.e. my ISP is @Home so it would be sent to abuse@home.com with the log attack record). If the ISP is responsible and maintains an active monitoring program of its users, they will most likely get suspended. We need to start listing their ISP numbers and names to see if there is a pattern. My 2 cents, Nick
