    Please don't turn this into a "PRC are attacking us" thread. There are plenty of governments, mine included (UK), which are performing various nefarious activities online. I am not religious but I think that the various holy books contain a great deal of wisdom. In this case "let he without sin cast the first stone" i.e. don't have ago at PRC when ones own government are carrying out similar operations.

    Are PRC guilty? I think so but I do think that it is probably matched by what occurs at Langley, Virginia and The Doughnut, Cheltenham.

    Gary, I have no intention of turning this in that type of thread..

    I was simply giving a factual account of the only instances I am aware of outside parties trying to hack my systems.

    When we have security consultants come in and poke around, my tools usually pick up some of their activity fairly quickly.

    My comment wasn't aimed at anyone in particular but we had already reached the half dozen posts mark. I think that the list of entities NOT trying to hack our systems is shorter than the list of people who ARE trying to hack it. At times it feels that the following is the only list I would trust:

      1) My Mum.

    Yep. That's about it. Not sure my Dad isn't trying either 😉
