I believe he was referring to the previous post about making the east a parking lot, nothing good coming from the east, etc. My personal comments were tongue-in-cheek, not directed at any specific country or group. Please don't lump me in with bigots & racists. Just to clarify my earlier comments... they referred to the fact that many countries have ISPs that wouldn't care about a security violation, therefore it was pointless to try to "go after' the violator. If an ISP doesn't care about the violation, I lump them & their entire country into the pile of CRAPPY and THIRD-WORLD-COUNTRY categories. I don't think that's racism... I think that's nationalism... which is sometimes considered extreme, but not usually immoral. |

From the posted forum rules: 6. Don't take it personally if you get edited by an admin or moderator. Things aren't always black and white and sometimes what is or isn't in line with the rules here is simply a judgement call. If your post gets edited but no other comment is made to you, don't stress about it. No one's mad at you or trying to censor your point of view. Just trying to keep it family friendly. --- Quote from: OrganicJerk on September 25, 2006, 04:15:06 pm ---Nice to see that bigotry is accepted on this forum, but a likely response is not. --- End quote --- |

Even if he's flying the Turkish flag and his ip address is from Turkey, it does not mean that he's really in Turkey. If he's a script kiddie, then more likely so, but even a lame hacker should know to use a chain of free proxies. Banning the ip should not help too much, as switching to another proxy in another country takes just few seconds. I can write from US, next I could be writing from China or Australia. The only way to get rid of him is to have up to date software, so he will get tired of looking for new hacks and will move on to an easier target. Even if he's gone for a few months, you have no choice but to keep your website up to date. He may be back one day with his new shiny hack and try to use it on you again. Anyway, take a look at your logs once in a while to see anything suspicious. One old trick was to have a dummy website/ftp on your server, so all the hackers would go in to that part like cows on a slaughter. They would pick some files thinking it's something valuable, but it was just garbage or fake data. Once they are there, admin would get a notice that someone is in the "room" where nobody was supposed to go to. They could alter the "fake" website, leave and then call the friends only to find out that nothing got really hacked at all. :blah: :laugh2: |
