Killed.  Banning the related IP Subnets....but there were 2 users and each used a total of 20+ networks, so we'll see how much of the world I have to ban.

 

I suspect it's a new bot network as it all happened so quickly.


And I've already got 4 hits from the bots trying to login now that I've banned their usernames....

 

So if the site goes offline again you know why...

Yeap, looks like a new Bot Network...most of the IPs were from residential ISP's Dynamic IP ranges.  Comcast, Time Warner, Cox, some random server in Germany which is flagged as a SOCKS5 proxy.  Fun times.

 

Unfortunately this means they might make a comeback as the infected home PCs get new IP Addresses, but the Usernames have been banned...

Well, not completely gone, but at least I've gotten the "guests" to under double digit numbers...

 

I'm off to my mother's for Sunday dinner, so if anything pops back up, those of you that know how to contact me...please do so.

Yeah, I can't just outright block the networks those ones are coming from...block Comcast's IP Range and I bet we'd loose alot of potential players.  I don't mind blocking China/Russia/Ukraine/etc. but Western IP Ranges I try to be less....ban heavy on as that's our community base.
