Ok, for future reference, I'll give the link to the extremely effective AIMFix tool. http://jayloden.com/VirusClean.htm

Just download and run the program. Viruses gone.

I use AIM without worry of any sort of virus....

but then, I have a Mac. I don't generally worry about viruses, anyway.

I am having problems with people from Iran. It's like they are on 24/7 waiting for me to shut off my firewall. I get several Japs trying to hack into my sql server with their blank password method. Piff

^ Indeed .... however, consider the source of whom you are arguing with SF. ;-)

WWS -- are you just getting pings or actual attempts to backdoor? What type of notification are you getting about the attempts? And, how many hops are they using to get to you? It may just be a random "ping -a" or "ping -t" that is constantly hitting since it has found a valid address that is actively running (I would assume) DNS. Have you considered a black out of that entire octect? Are you able to set up your servers to spoof their IPs so what is out to the world is not real? (As in, put them behind a router so the IP is split and comes out with some BS 192.168 ...)

At any rate, is this what is causing the bog down lately?

It is better than it was ... but, still slightly slower than usual.

the blank password things are occuring to my puter, home computer not the server. The bogdown is I believe what SixFlagsFiesta is saying, though I cannot prove it. Nevertheless I am trying to work with redbrad0 on these issues. If all else fails, I may move in with SFF and get a box or two.
