I was having trouble sleeping one evening and I had gone to bed and then I woke up so I

went downstairs to just farts around for a little bit and I turned on my computer and I

was looking at my email and here was a message from my bank, B of A, saying that my account

had dropped below $25 and at the time it didn't trigger anything in me because I only I knew I had

about 30 something dollars in it and it was an account that I used to keep money for equipment

materials, that type of thing for my business. But anyway, so I thought of that and just, yeah,

okay fine and then I went back to sleep and when I finally got up in the morning, all of a sudden

I'm sitting there making my coffee and I'm going, well, why did my account go down below $25?

I haven't used that account in a couple of weeks. This is Tom. He's just found out that somebody's

used his credit card without his approval. So obviously things are shot. So I immediately called

the bank and I said, I don't know what's going on but I got a notice from B of A that I was

overdrawn. So their fraud department said, okay fine and they started a deal and immediately notified

me that my accounts were frozen and that I couldn't do anything. So this was kind of a frustrating

thing. I'm sitting there saying to myself and how and the hell could that happen?

When someone gets attacked from a specific IP address, wouldn't it be nice if your network
