![]() Our ISA server is being repeatedly scanned by a variety of Nildram dynamic ip addresses - anyone else seeing this? Nildram Abuse team say all we can do is to ensure our server is protected - do they not have a responsibility to warn their customers (whether they are deliberate attempts, or attempts due to trojan infection??) Thanks |

I sent this to the abuse team some time ago and have seen no sign of any action; sure it's only background noise, maybe a few MB a day, but it's still damn annoying. Are you sure about that? :-) 127.0.0.1 is the loopback address, it is your computer that is generating the packets. I'm afraid that a sort of automated warning system which automatically takes action against our customers for generating too much "noise" is out of the question. |

![]() What surprises me is that normally when you report this kind of activity to an ISP, 9 times out of 10 they do stop the abuse. Nildram seem to just shrug their shoulders (althought I'm glad to see that representatives do post in these forums). Is there some problem that would prevent Nildram from speaking to the owner of the IP address and asking them to check out their PC? |
