Where can I? I found an IP in China trying to access SCVhost.exe on my computer. I do not know anyone in CHina. Also, a company in Chicago tryed to do the same thing, same file. They both were caught by my firewall as a "Remote Access Threat". Where can I have these checked out?

1) It is spelt China--without the capital H.
2) It could be worm--not a hacker.
3) Report the offender to its ISP.

That sounds like the MSBlast worm, so it's probably not a hacker attack, put the ip's into a whois get their ISP's abuse address send a report and the ISP will tell them they've got a worm

Village Specialton, I think you jump to conclusions far too often.

Thank you, monder. I might jump to conclusions, but the fact he is using RA and I don''t know him bothers me. I will use a whois to find his ISP. My computer has all ports MSblast.exe attacks closed, the patch installed, and I have made every attempt to stop it. Sorry about the spelling mistake. Geeks 2 Go forgot some of my computer parts, and I had homework, so I didn''t change it. I will also consider this a worm. I in general meant by hacker something hacking my computer.
