I have heard, and it is only in newsgroups and chatting with others, that Red China has conscripted a very large army of hackers, and directed them to attack and invade any and all internet servers here in the free world, specifically within the U.S. borders. You may have experienced a preemptive intrusion from one of their attempts, or from another source. According to newsgroup sources, the main thrust of the assualt will begin on May 1st, but that is not to say, some won't do a bit of early probing before the flood is sent out. Just keep your firewall hot, and an eye on your system. Eternal vilgilance is the price of liberty, and of a trojan/virus free operating system. =)
