A hacker at work? IP 80.46.128.141

My IP address has only been revealed by malicious posters
in the NG uk.radio.amateur.

I noticed some strange activity on my ADSL modem,
and identified as a malicious scan on the one port
that is open.

The scanning is coming from IP address 80.46.128.141,
which resolves to dsl-80-46-128-141.access.uk.tiscali.com

If this is your IP address, perhaps you'll have the decency to
identify yourself so that a complaint can be made?

Not true

Hackers scan large IP ranges looking for security vulnerabilities.
If you have one then it will be found.

Also your IP addres sis also reveales in evry email you send and recorded by
every web server you connect to.

Hehe, you have no idea what you are talking about:

1. Every single thing you do on the net "reveals" your IP, it's not
"secret". Heck, even the post you just made reveals your IP.

2. Port scans happen all the time. I get dozens of logs full of them every
day, and I'm on a dynamic IP. Consider it "background radiation".

3. A port scan isn't illegal, you have no grounds to complain.

Rubbish. It's in the headers of your postings. Surely you know this?
You are a software consultant, aren't you? You claim to have been on
Usenet for years?

A reasonable newsreader, such as Agent which I am using, means one can
scan received postings for such information. For example, it tells me
that you have posted 74 messages from that address since your original
complaint about BT Broadband.
I noticed some strange activity on my ADSL modem,
and identified as a malicious scan on the one port
that is open.

And what was it that made that scan 'malicious'?
The scanning is coming from IP address 80.46.128.141,
which resolves to dsl-80-46-128-141.access.uk.tiscali.com

Well, didn't you maintain that 'Tiscali' was an Italian word for
'crap'? (your words)?
If this is your IP address, perhaps you'll have the decency to
identify yourself so that a complaint can be made?

The normal thing to do in these circumstances is to post all the
information you have to [email protected] or whatever their abuse
address is (which as you were a customer of theirs you should be
familiar with) and they will let you know what they are doing about it
- always presuming the 'scan' was 'malicious'. Such information should
be available from your firewall log. You do know what a firewall is?
And a log? Ask if you're in doubt. HTH

You're revealing your IP address in every single posting you make.
From the headers of your own posting:
NNTP-Posting-Host: adsl1-p1505.ras.network-i.net (212.21.118.235)

Are you really that stupid?

a) Your IP address is often as not included in the properties of the posts
you make. In your case it is there.

b) I assume you are not using a fire wall? Do you know what a fire wall is?

c) What have you got on your PC that could be of so much interest?

You really are a prime pillock.

Assuming you have a dynamic IP and not a static one, (you do understand the
difference, I assume?) all you need do is power down and restart your PC and
modem. The chances are that your IP will then change. All you need do then
is stay off Usenet and your new IP is unlikely to be discovered. This would
also be advantageous to the rest of the Usenet community.

So, Meester Bond, you have discovered my secret new portscanner !

[ pauses to stroke hairy white moggy on lap ]

Let us see what it can do.

[ pushes button on desk ]

There, Meester Bond, that didn't hurt, did it ? I shall now
expect to see a flurry of news postings on the internet
threatening me with action from the United Nations.

What fools they are !

Farewell, Meester Bond ........

huh?
though you had a bit more 'net-sense' OM.

try getting about 500 of these a day.

it's most likely a virus on the guys PC anyway.
if u run a firewall just ignore it.

don't assume the attackers IP AD is correct anyway.
it could be a mirror reflector IP in use.

But, to be fair, Gareth must be having an off day. So far we've had: Errors
in the use of indice notation, errors understanding Euler identities,
(more) errors re DSP, confusion over time and the period of a waveform.

Now this IP / hacking stuff.

Even for Gareth that is a lot of 'blond moments' in one day. Maybe we should
call them "Gareth Moments" in the future to mark this day.

What really makes me die, is the clown cross posted this to

I wonder how his newfound fan club within that group will view his

PS all of a sudden it's gone very quiet in Chippenham, perhaps his broadband

Is this what he means by "arguing from his maintained knowledge"?
Looks like he needs a new maintenance contract.

That may be so, but it is not an invitation under UK
law for unauthorised access to be made to it.
