All of this were 'Suspicious connections' to Trustix FTP Site... if you
take a look at least one match with the one's reported by loon. take a
quick look at the e-mail addresses provided when login as Anonymous.

Hello, 
I'm sure you are all seeing this, but, i have noticed a bit of a pattern
to all this, every hit i get starts with the A....i.e.:



ftp connection attempt from AReims-101-1-4-54.abo.wanadoo.fr:3165
ftp connection attempt from AToulouse-201-1-2-235.abo.wanadoo.fr:2304
ftp connection attempt from ALyon-201-1-6-98.abo.wanadoo.fr:3620
ftp connection attempt from ABrest-101-1-4-4.abo.wanadoo.fr:3858
ftp connection attempt from ALagny-101-1-6-165.abo.wanadoo.fr:4526
ftp connection attempt from ALille-101-1-2-251.abo.wanadoo.fr:1025
ftp connection attempt from ABesancon-101-1-4-78.abo.wanadoo.fr:3884

this should all but confirm the fact that its some sort of script...hope
that helps...

hello,

for some time (weeks if not months) several of our remote offices have been
logging connects attempts to port 21 from various ips that resolve to
(something).wanadoo.fr.  since we have firewalls on many different networks
from several providers all logging these attempts, i'm fairly sure this is a
script randomly scanning ips.  I even put up an FTP server on one box to see
what would happen if port 21 was open, it attempted to login as anonymous
but I didn't let it go any further.
