Hi Tom

When I used NAV I received  those messages quite frequently, the most common 
was 
"back door trojan", usually originating from the US and one frequent attacker 
was "Roadrunner".  Norton used to provide information about the attacker 
including a world map indicating the location from which the attack was 
launched.  As for doing anything about it, if it had come from the UK I would 
be 
writing to the company and reporting the attack to our Government's Trading 
Standards Office but because most came from the US I didn't think it was 
worthwhile.  I noticed that Friday was a very popular day for these sort of 
attacks for some unknown reason, perhaps a sort of POEST day instead of POETS 
day ;-)

I get a message from my Norton virus protection at least a few times a day 
saying something like an internet worm intrusion has been blocked.  I know this 
can't be a bad thing but does this mean that EACH time this comes up that I am 
being attacked?  Also, is there a way to find out where this is coming from and 
any way to stop it??

Thanks

Avast ye land lubbers!
