I report all attempts with more > than two tries. Nice to know. Thanks. I'd like to see an article which addressed those sort of issues. There's plenty on how to stop bad guys and how to detect them, but I've seen very little on how to punish them. Practical things. Just ISP? FBI? Local police? Always E-mail, or phone call? Probability of bad guy retaliating? Probability of having to go to court? What are common ISP/FBI/cop reactions to complaints? Many first-hand stories would be good.
