    Darn Ruskies

    All this thing about Russian hackers aiding Trump's candidacy but it seems to be part of a general Russian assault on Websites everywhere.

    Most of the visitors to my website that click on a product but do not complete a purchase are from Russia. Checked just now and had one from UK and 35 from Russia. They click on everything on the site, I keep getting PMs with no message.

    Doubt my little website would affect the US elections, so presumably I am just one of many subject to these attempts. Are they trying to get be the world hacking leaders?

    Your site is probably used as C&C server, don't be surprised if you wake up on an CIA airplane flying to Cuba...

        I was in Russia last week, CUK blocks all IP's from our Russian friends, a quick VPN got round the block

          Had to Google C&C server and found refs to a P2P botnet. Like the sound of that!

          Nice pic!

          Good thing I didn't waste money on the new paid for IP2C then. Used to be free.
