Question

My spyware program Pops up and warns me when someone is trying to invade my system (Without my permission) It gives me the IP Numbers of the people who are trying to do this. I have had to RE-install my Operating system twice within the last 30 days because if a hijacker and spyware! One of them was New.Net.Domain.Plugin My Question is; Is there any way to make these people pay for the major headaches that they create by reporting them to someone?

Answer 1

You are being bot attacked, it starts as people,then it is all on auto play like a phonograph. Program pings a box, gets a response, /send_data.
Could be any number of legit or what you bought or downloaded as legit softwares or drivers movie clips, stuff.
Close the port it is trying to access and start logging as well as back up all data.
If it is an attack, you would have been owned by now. I know I have been a few times, I just shrug, laugh with them, laugh at myself then restore the data from the last Backup Set I made.
Sometimes they get nasty, it is no reason for me to get upset or lower my own self to a level that does or can cause unrecoverable data loss to a system that has not been backed up.
I have re-installed OS's 35+ times in 2 years, probably 500 over the last 15 years. You cannot rely on the OS or the hardware but you can rely on a good backup routine.
It is not fun sometimes, that is why I leave the big guns alone.
Call your ISP, that is what you pay them for every month. Close the ports the 'attacker' is trying to get in. It is like 3d chess.

Answer 2

Put your self behind a router is the best first step.

Reporting all those random IPs will be useless, that happens billions of times a day. You can really only report someone who is breaking the law, or track them down and sue them for losses.

The router will eliminate your problems, especially if you have firewall on your PC too. In fact the router will act as a firewall, and everything sending hacking attempts to your public IP address will hit a know nothing router and not you.

Answer 3

I think Symanctec and/or McAfee has a reporting system to help block malicious IP address'.

Answer 4

There might desire to be a thank you to allow a internet site with the aid of norton, if not you will possibly desire to be waiting to disable the internet take care of, firewall or if not disable norton as a rule for a on an identical time as (purely as long as your on the internet internet site). I consider the above answer, norton one in each of if not THE worst anti-virus. you will possibly desire to swap to a minimum of a few thing like Avast, Avg, NOD32 or kaspersky

Answer 5
