An open question
I agree with the article it does seem that
Comcast is the biggest spammer and hopefully
they'll get off their duff's and do something
about the Zombie PC's on their network.
Sorry if this question is off topic but, does
anybody know who to file a complaint to as
regards another cable company, RCN, who also
seem to have a number of Zombie PC's on their
network? I receive at least 6 - 8 warning of
port scans to a specific location all originating
from RCN.com and despite my complaints to them
their attitude has been one of "not our problem",
"we don't fix user's PC's", or "while it is an
indication of the beginning of a hacker attack
let us know when it gets serious.".

Would appreciate some suggestions.

Thanks in advance.
