Thanks Trevor J,

I note that the latest (*.dev) ASSP 'crash' usually occurs with the last 
contents of my ASSP logs showing this info:

------------------
[Worker_1] 91.189.90.139 <[email protected]> info: found message size 
announcement: 10.20 kByte
[Worker_1] [denyExtreme] 91.189.90.139 <[email protected]> connection 
from 91.189.90.139 denied by PenaltyBox Extreme '91.189.90.0'

The above units come in rapid repeats (many bursts), then stop for a time.

Tracing the ip given shows:

Host name:adelie.canonical.com
OrgName: RIPE Network Coordination Centre
OrgId: RIPE
Address: P.O. Box 10096
City: Amsterdam
StateProv:
PostalCode: 1001EB
Country: NL
-----------------

As you can see I have this IP listed in ASSP's [denyExtreme] db (for some 
time -actually = 5 months).

I will consider adding the above email  '[email protected]' toASSP's 
[preHeaderRe]

Simplify data backup and recovery for your virtual environment with vRanger. 
Installation's a snap, and flexible recovery options mean your data is safe,
secure and there when you need it. Data protection magic?
Nope - It's vRanger. Get your free trial download today.
