Some of the script attacks were from the @Home ( or flavors of @Home (ie: @Roadrunner) meaning the 24.x.x.x IP set. But there were quite a few who were on other ISP's but I had a trace route of their IP#, heheh I could even trace a private network ( 192.168.x.x) node back to a specific city/town. But all they said was they weren't responsible for MY security. I have even seen the '@Home security "AUTHORIZED" scan' of their own running and turning up in the BlackICE logs. And yes I realise some of the IP's that were atacking me were ALREADY compromised by the script kiddies, but @Home should at least acknowledge some responsibility.
