Comment: I have zone alarm and had a huge problem with spy ware and viruses and such. Well I formatted and cleaned up the computer and put zone alarm on the computer and now I will get a ton of things from zone alarm saying that all these things have been blocked. How can I fight back or stop these people from finding my computer?

Reply: (edit)you can send your log to dshield http://www.dshield.org/howto.php Check with your ISP to see if they have an abuse dept. Most ISP will accept logs showing port probes that ORIGINATE from one of their customers.
