i I too am getting at least 70 scans a day from this person, all socks and proxy port scan attempts. I will probably put a honey pot onto a port just to see what his next attempt will be. regards charles On Sat, 17 May 2003 10:34:29 -0500 "Anthony Papaleo" <papaleo () ameritech net> wrote:
This guy has scanned my system a dozen or so times in the last two days. He can't be legitimate: If he is supposedly a security professional, he would not perform scans of this type uninvited. My BlackIce PF calls this suspicious activity, "...TCP port probes directed at ports 3128, 8000, and 8080, which may indicate that an attacker is searching the system for a proxy server."
