When I first installed the new security to stop hacking, the system constantly notified me of outside attempts to enter. At first I thought it must be common internet chatter, but because it's been blocked, the constant attempts have almost completely ceased...or maybe my post about FBI involvement discouraged them.

Maybe these are nothing, but they are not "pop-ups", I already have a filter for those and many of these attempts happened when working independent of the internet.

218.15.192.64  (continuous attempts)

218.87.86.104 (continuous attempts)

0.0.0.0. (DHCP)

255.255.255.255 (DHCP)

217.81.225.150

210.5.22.10

64.247.27.40

24.205.224.36

66.215.117.41

66.214.72.38

64.156.39.12

10.213.30.1

noted these specifically tried as I was working on documents, not on internet:

24.24.10.184

62.87.232.128

217.164.64.252

202.42.58.202

217.233.22.10

Also, security stopped my "windows explorer" from trying to send data to 127.0.0.1

For those who have the time and inclination, these are the numbers of computers attempting to enter mine. I know there are ways of tracking these down, but I don't know how to do this extensively. If anyone finds anything, please notify us. Thank you!

There were others, but I got tired of writing them down and thought they must be normal. As they have almost completely stopped, I realize they probably were malicious? 

(Biting lip) I just happened to check my stats from my security system. To date (9/14/03) there have been 606 attempts and 6 of them were "high rated." I haven't checked this for days and days.

(I hate it when things turn out to be 666's. That's the Biblical number of the beast.)
