Ali, do you have the current version of ZA? (2.1 I think)-- the previous version didn't do logging.

[Victorian]

Ali - check in C:\Windows\Internet logs and look for ZAlog.txt. If it's not there make sure that you have ZoneAlarm set to keep a log.

Thanks guys, I had 2.0.26, and the 'check for update' button doesnt seem to work.

Downloading 2.1 now.

Victorian, the IP address cited in that long series of probes you received, according to a databased I just checked, belongs to these guys:

http://www.exodus.net/

They're a company that appears to specialize in Internet security.

I did wonder if UN would decide to go after the people who gave the ole BBq. It looks like he did. I wonder if the authorties will catch up on him.

[Shane]

Yeah but homes are private places, internet forums are not.

paulcs: Interesting. Wonder why an internet security company would be trying to probe my system. Funny thing is, when you put the address in your browser you end up at Speedvision.com which is some kind of auto racing news site. Ah well....

paulcs, Where did you find that database info? I have several attempted hits on my system that I would like to investigate. Holly, please don't eat me!

Hmm, we're going off-topic. The topic was "Blasted minis," not hacking. Heh.

[Jorden]

As the original mini mentioned in the first post was our notorious hacker, I think we're pretty much on topic here. Especially when it helps others to get better equipment to protect themselves. (Not meaning Durex, although that helps alot as well )

Thanks Ian! That is what I was looking for.

[DuRaNgO]

Durex? is that the new AMD chip? I heard it's designed to grow with your system
