the warez dudez won't leave me alone...

[Richard Morin <qnc496@durhamnews.net>]

Hi folks just wanted to pass along my suprise that the warez doodz have
been trying to get into my *home* machine which is only connected via
dialup ppp, and get this I use a dynamic ip.  
Here is just some of the attempts...

...........and 4 more from this guy.............

ubvmsa.cc.buffalo.edu [128.205.100.2],mac 
.......this guy was persistent, about 8 tries with different id, mac, Mac,
warez and so on... 

Just thought I'd pass this along to others like me who might have wu-ftpd
on their system to learn about it.  I've not yet had time to think much
about it till now. 

I guess this means that somehow someone has listed my machine on a warez
list eh??  Kinda funny in a mosquito like way.....

Can I leave these kidz a nice message somehow??
