Dear Sirs, Frustration is running high! I am using ver 2.1.0-RELEASE. Have ordered the latest (v2.6.6-RELEASE) from cdrom.com So... before it's installed I would still like to know how the hell he's doing it. I get the following: Jul 28 14:03:33 home popper[1027]: -ERR Unknown command: "^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P ^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P ^P^P^P^P^P ^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P ^P^P^P^P^P ^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P ^P^P^P^P^P ^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P ^P^P^P^P^P ^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P ^P^P^P^P^P ^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P ^P^P^P^P^P ^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P ^P^P^P^P^P ^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P ^P^P^P^P^P ^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P ^P^P^P^P^P ^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P ^P^P^P^P^P ^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P ^P^P^P^P^P ^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P^P Jul 28 14:03:49 home popper[1028]: (v2.1.4-R3) Servicing request from "usimsptc2 -146.usinternet.com" at 208.160.34.146 As you can see... I know where he's coming from. I find that he hammers away on port 110 with these control-p's till the popper exits. Afterwards the log files show missing hours of time and my system is trashed. I am sure part of the answer will be that ver 2.2.6 will fix it with the firewall and all... but I would still like an answer from some one with a handle on just what I am looking at. I have been plagued with this guy now for a week and have been loosing sleep over it. I would appreciate some inside information on how this is done and how to prevent it.
