My computer has been attacked a lot today! It is the same two IPs over and over. The attacks actually started last night. As of right now, just today, I have been attacked 79 times.

Right now, I am really happy I have Norton Internet Security!

Here are the two IPs: 24.218.212.133 and 24.218.212.228

I believe that IP addresses beginning with "24" are Optimum Online customers (cable modem ISP)

A quick search on Geektools came up with:

AT&T Broadband Northeast


I toss my cookies for Disney.

I wonder what inspired this new Disney T-shirt? "I'm right. You're wrong. Any Questions?"

The way I understand it, 24. is common for cable users.

Tink, it doesn't work that way, or that specifically with that level IP address, as you get deeper into the IP address, then you can start figuring who has what "class" of IP addresses assigned to them.
