In regard to the article below, would this explain the rather large number of portscans I have been getting from 63.105.205.x over the last few weeks? Traceroute reports these as originating in Korea. Out of curiosity, have these scans been widespread enough for anyone else on the list to take note, or am I just in a "lucky" ip range that they happen to be working through right now? BK P.S. You think maybe they will offer their hacking courses online? ;-) May 16, Reuters South Korea fortifying computer security. North Korea is training around 100 computer hackers each year to boost its cyber-warfare capabilities, pushing the South to fortify its own computer security, a South Korean military official said Friday. South Korea is one of the world's most wired countries, making it vulnerable to cyber attacks, Song Young-keun, commanding general of Seoul's Defense Security Command, was quoted as saying. 70 percent of households in South Korea have Internet access. Song said the military would also need the combined efforts of research institutions and private sector businesses to strengthen cyber security, the report added.
