Does anyone know what this is?

Well if they attack your computer systems....it is against the law...and you can take it from there.

i would still report it to your IT guy....

and then add them to the junk mail folder in yahoo....

or change your email address...then they would be..... .flucked ............they could not harrass you any more.

I use web mail accounts for this very purpose....

Did you download or install anything from them...while at work??? Maybe the website they host has some kind of malicious code on it and when you went there (while at work) has dumped some call home program on your machine.

In this case...you need to contact your IT guy to clean it.... ;)

good luck

No I am not worried in the least about them showing up here on little bit. Honestly I would love it if they did. I am worried that they might screw up my computer though.

Is there any way to detect things that Ad-Aware could have missed? Something that could have gotten around Symantic Anti Virus?

in a word...yes :eek:

your IT guy would be the best person to handle this...

as there may be some AUP at your work and you dont want to dig yourself any deeper ...cause there are some things you can run...but you have to be admin of the machine...and REALLY know what your looking for.

you could end up flucking up your machine even more....specially if you dont know what your doing.

Basicly this is comming from what I can only assume to be a script kiddy trying to threaten me by showing me that they know my IP and where my computer is located.

I can look up your home address in a phone book and I can see your license plate on your car when you drive around town. Knowing your IP address is trivial. Want mine?

You could drive a truck through SAV. It has the worst response time to threats on the planet. Even the free AV scanners do a better job. Symantec is the titanic of the AV world -- Apparently no account was made for advances in scale, and little thought given to how a ship 882 1/2 feet (269 m) in length might turn in an emergency, or avoid a collision with an iceberg. This was Titanic's Achilles' heel." This is a perfect description of Symantec products as they grow in size.

It sounds like these people are threatening you....You should report them to the police and make a backup copy of all of you're important files, so that if these people do try something, you don't lose all of your work

thats my two cents worth

2 cents 2 weeks 2 late :eek:

check threads for the *flashing*date*
and let em lie

UNLESS you have something of real import to add
unlike here
