Default PC hacking

Just so everyone stays vigilant, I've just had some prick try and do a portscan on my pc, Norton picked it up ok...

I've traced whoever tried it right down to the street name and house number, but they're from Califonia so I couldn't exactly go round and have a word lol.

I've had roughly 1 an hour for the last week now, someone must be doing the rounds again

Make sure your firewall and any other virus/anti-spam software is up to date people

That feature in norton is quite clever but im doubtful the address it brings up is even the address of the hacker. Most of them do it remotely so its harder to track em.
