"And yes, I unticked the "show alerts" box many moons ago" so you're reading log files and getting pissed? i thought you were dealing with alerts showing blocked attempts. i'll adjust my advice then.... turn off event logging and program logging. or stop reading them. <g> "but it can't hurt to send "evidence" to an Internet Provider, can it? I mean, without evidence, how would any crime be solved. Sure, I'm only one user, but every little bit helps. So why am I barking up the wrong tree?" okay, i should have said IMO you are barking up the wrong tree. but i think that's understood anyway. since you asked again about evidence... what you are doing (IMO) is the rough equivalent of pointing at all of the dead insects on the ground around a bug zapper and saying 1) all these dead bugs make me mad as hell, and 2) i'd like someone to tell me where they come from and how they can be stopped well, something already did stop them (your bug zapper), and putting all the dead bugs in an envelope and writing "evidence" on it won't do a thing towards stopping them from breeding. "It's only recently I decided "I'm mad as hell, and I'm not taking it anymore". i understand causes. and each of us has to do what we must. i meant no offense, certainly :)
