Anyone else getting outgoing requests on their firewall from the spammer megaprovider.nl;
http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/55/31580.html
I'd got several prompts from Outpost to set up a rule for DEVNULL.megaprovider.nl which I just left blocked & didn't respond to until I could check it out. Seems like they're still active - spyware & trojan checks find nothing on my system, so I guess it must be a drive-by...
I get so many hits on my firewall that I don't even pay attention anymore :(
Yeah really. But there will come a day (maybe), when that log will be useful. But really not...what with ip spoofing and the like. It is really getting harder and harder (if not impossible without lots of time, manpower, and funds) to narrow ANYTHING down. https://forums.windrivers.com/images.../2005/03/1.gifQuote:
