yibbleyab Posted March 19, 2006 CID Share Posted March 19, 2006 in the past few days I've received many (like 50 or more) port scans from the same IP address. Is there anyone I can report them to or any way I can find out who is scanning me so much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please be specific. What type of websites do you visit and more important during the days that these scans took place what sites did you visit. I think the bigger question should be why have you attracted the attention of a computer on a DoD net. There are several possible "whew" type of answers like virus on someones lappy (lets hope not being its on a DoD net...but hey it happens)....and there are the "oh snit" reasons and I think those are self explanatory.

yibbleyab Posted March 19, 2006 Author CID Share Posted March 19, 2006 well I'm not on any specific websites. the scans happen wether I'm on the computer or if I'm sleeping. I've attached my scan logs from yesterday and today. hopefully it will help explain what I cant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest thecableguy Posted March 19, 2006 CID Share Posted March 19, 2006 Nope...it didn't but given the level of severity or more like lack thereof I'm inclined to think that this is related to a site you may have visited on those days OR you actually were scanned by something but not that address....a spoofed IP maybe. Again you have not shared your surfing habits with us so it's hard to say. I will say this much....if you are doing nothing wrong...fear not......nonetheless I'm sure it got your attention in a heartstopping kind of way for a moment though didn't it.

yibbleyab Posted March 20, 2006 Author CID Share Posted March 20, 2006 LOL yeah seeing that many, and the many others before i started logging, is something that always piques my interest. I know that a couple sites will scan me but nothin serious. Just game sites and the like. If it looks like its just a spoofing then i'm not too concerned about it. Thanks alot for the help. Once again this place proves its the best site going Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest thecableguy Posted March 20, 2006 CID Share Posted March 20, 2006 H LOL yeah seeing that many, and the many others before i started logging, is something that always piques my interest. I know that a couple sites will scan me but nothin serious. Just game sites and the like. If it looks like its just a spoofing then i'm not too concerned about it. Thanks alot for the help. Once again this place proves its the best site going Heh....I think you didnt get where my concern was....and thats probably a good thing....but tell ya what...these days esp., if I discovered my puter was being scanned by a DoD IP, spoofed or not my initial reaction would require a minor change of undergarments. I don't think you have anything to worry about unless you know something we don't..... Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
