I've seen the following scan on some servers I admin for the last few days from not only 207.46.106.84 but also a couple other systems in that /24 address space. So far I've seen the version.bind hits about 50 times. The really wierd thing is: we have two connections to the 'net our dns servers are split across the connections it's not a browser on the internal side triggering it as they're round robined via squid out the two connections ALL the attempts are to the same server.
