    My 9999th Re-format!

    Well I just reformated again. I have forgoten how quicky XP started up on an empty harddrive. Thanks god I didn't have to do it to my storage server. I would cry. This one is the Comp that I use for playback and surfing here. I got a trojan that yes. Deleted more than half of the needed system files. Damn bast@r|s

    One wonders what you do with your system. I don't usually format until after I have used the current Windows installation after at least 7 months. I like all things running fast and stable.

          My hacker just tried again. Coming from 67.68.199.155 (TCP Port 2834) Guess I'll have to download a ping tool.

                  No pop ups and a firewall and a whole bunch of other stuff I haven't figured out yet.

                    ZAP gave me the above addy...but I have to pay another $19 for their "essential tools" in order to send a package to the perpetrator and fry his HD. The event was described as a "port scan trying to find unprotected web servers".

                      Id just download it, use it once, and go back to what you were using before.

                        Even if you can locate the IP, it may only be the IP of an innocent victim's PC which is also being used to perpetrate these PC "attacks".
