Rochr,
Sure I'll just hook it up to the trusty old ZPM or a Naquada generator.
Rayraz,
They aren't my carrier yet. I emailed one site and they said they'd block the violation from trying to hack into my computer. There are about twenty others that need to be taken care of as well. Yes it is illegal to hack into someone elses computer without their permission. In the U.S.A. the last resort to report such violations is the Federal Trade Commission and most companies don't want the hassle. Not sure what to do about the Australian hack yet.... I'm not at all suprised to find out that the hacks come from big companies - most all hacks need to be done by someone with more expertise in internet programming than myself. Most people simply do not have the knowlede it takes to hack and unless they work for a company who employs them to do this aren't likely to access the information it takes to learn how to do this stuff. the day of the script kitty is all but gone, when I first started tracing these bozos I thought I'd catch a few punks but all hacks seem to originate from large companies and most (when caught) are more than willing to block hacksites. In the case of ATT I am sure that they started trying to hack my computer when I made an inquery as to their broadband service. Sure I want to pay $12.99 for broadband, sure I like ATT but I do not want them invading my privacy for the priviledge.
Of course someone could figure out more about more about firewall logs inquiring to IP addresses for domain info and write code which contacts the clown by E-Mail or does something else. Such a person could call such software "the corbomite device" after Kirk's bluff in StarTrek TOS .As John Wayne might say " 'Im not gonna do it; I'm not gonna do it..."
