Hacks
I found it a little interesting today when I read an email from BWE, warning me that someone had tried to log into my account here, and failed, in fact, so many times that the system locked them out, for a little while anyway.
Anyway, thanks for the heads-up BWE. I don't know if this is isolated to me, or if something that all of us should be looking out for. |
I got one of those too.:eek:

You can ask BWE to give you the Ip address where the failed attempts were comming from, then you can track the address via the IP address. Just a bit more leg work.

Thanks Frank, They did provide the IP, and I know I can track it, to within a certain distance.

For all the good it delivers, the mighty Net is one crazy place.
Everything connected to it is constantly being probed, all the time. Always use complex password! Change it periodically! Or next thing we'll be reading spam bot crap posted from your account. |
