Greetings,

I just got scanned from 211.100.7.29 on port 80.  Snort picked up the scan
and alerted me.  Check out the request:

Looks like a scan for proxy.  Upon visiting that site
http://asia1.vr9.com/cgi-bin/ver.cgi?file=../search.htm&port=80 I see the
following:

REMOTE_ADDR = my.ip.addr

Looks like he/she has a script running on the other end waiting for
connections and storing the IP's...

Interesting.  I wonder if there will be a follow up visit to me, because i
did that...
