Hackers have a lot of tools at their disposal to hack into systems.
Although we are at their mercy we can now fight back against them.
Earlier Norton blocked the following attack -

The attack came from this address - 74.53.88.50 TCP, www-http.
Just by posting the information from a blocked attack will allow the sweet spot of the hacker to be exposed. Hackers love information about others to
use against them....but they cannot survive when the Guy Fawkes has been ripped from their face.
So basically a way to counter hackers is to post the same type of information above out in the open so that other hackers who love hacking hackers
will have the intelligence available to get a free Kill Mail for their collection.
