Hi,

Did others notice intensive scans from:
        inetnum:      213.17.86.0 - 213.17.89.255
        netname:      WANADOO-CABLE-BD
as well?

I got scans from several host resulting in plenty of lines in my log 
files. After sending a complaint I got an automated response claiming thay 
can not do a thing about it.

According to Dutch law and their AUP they can act upon the information but 
apparantly tell averyone they do not wish to do so.

I suggest any one of you that has seen scans from this netwok and received 
a similar message to complain pointing them to applicable Dutch law under 
the name "Wet computer criminaliteit" (computer crime law) as described 
under the section "compter terreur" (computer terror).

A sample of one of these prbes will be available on my website later.

Hugo.

            Don't meddle in the affairs of sysadmins,
            for they are subtle and quick to anger.
