Probably, Hookstar. I've had 270 tonight :(

Have a look at ZA's log file. Anything attacking your port 135 is probably MSBlast.

Most of the post 135 probes I'm getting are from other Demon Internet hosts. Demon's Abuse Department is going to be busy this month ;)

By the way, how long have you had that version of ZA?

The log file is normally cleared when ZA is upgraded. 10000 seem like a lot of items to have in the log :o

The latest version of ZA Free is 3.7.202 AFAIK.

Are they all from the same address Hookstar? It looks like someone is PINGing your address. It has nothing to do with MSBlast.

I've just doen some "further reading" ::) and it looks like it could be the MSBlast worm looking for hosts to exploit.

Sorry to mislead you :(

Either way, ZA is blocking it - so don't worry, unless you notice a signigficant drop in bandwidth :o

I've only had three or four attempted intrusion alerts over the past couple of days, and thankfully have not been 'blasted'.  I have Sygate Pro and Norton AV Pro, which I have been updating daily since the Blaster scare.  I also downloaded the MS patch, so hopefully I should be well protected.
