south korean trojan horse

T

txm

Somebody tried Trojan horse attack on my computer. Fortunately McAfee
detected it and told me I was attacked. I looked at administrators
responsible for the attacking source IP. I mailed and reported it but
obviously the mail address did not work. I found another possible email
address but it did not work either. Is this South Korea's national project
or what?

I just feel I'm ****ed up. I think they should make their naming service
right at least.

You could use dnsstuff, <http://www.dnsstuff.com/> to trace the IP
address and find the ISP's abuse address. Don't expect much from
Korean and Chinese ISPs though. Korea is carpeted with open relays
and China likes to rent web space to spammers.

Hehe, it locates me like this:

"You appear to be located in Germany [City: Hockenheim, Baden-
Wurttemberg], based on your IP address of 84.172.236.196 (see our
geolocation FAQ for details)"

only that Hockenheim
(a place famous for car and motorbike races up to formula 1 see
beware of the 2MB flash download)

is more than 30 miles away and located in a different "state" (we call
that federal country) of the FRG.

Heh. I can beat that. <g> My IP address, 12.74.211.108, resolves to
108.dallas-15rh16rt.tx.dial-access.att.net, which would cause most
people to believe that I'm in Dallas, Texas. That's 400 miles away.
I was a little surprised that DNSstuff placed me correctly in
Wichita, Kansas, USA. It gives me good confidence in whatever
information I would get from them.

Mysterious are the ways of Internet routing... ;-)

"Toto, I think we aren't in Kansas any more", or how does it go?

DNSstuff placed me in New Jersy, over a thousand miles away from where I am.
