Tracking down the intruders

I've been keeping track of hacker attacks on my computer over the past two weeks. (I'm a tempting target with an always-on cable modem connection.)

I don't know if this is foolhardy or not, or if other people have done this on their blogs, but I'm going to publish the IP addresses of the intruders. I had thought that I was getting repeat company, but each of these intruders tried to hack my machine only once. (Or were caught, at any rate, by my firewall.)

Geobytes offers this very cool page for tracking the location of IP addresses. Here's the rundown:

Backdoor/SubSeven Trojan horse attacks:

213.152.81.27:2312 (Alexandria, Egypt)
62.0.27.102 (Nazareth Illit, Israel)
24.197.20.140:2658 (Radford, Virginia)
4.41.216.79:3768 (Covina, Calif.)
24.141.58.173:1985 (Burlington, Ontario, Canada)
12.248.230.220:3777 (Rolling Meadows, Illinois)
68.82.85.25:1929 (Newark, Delaware)
67.9.80.55:4175 (Australia)
80.179.65.168:4361 (Tel Aviv, Israel)

Attempt to connect to local computer using the NetBus Trojan horse:
