Full StoryThis has been going on for a few weeks now, and I keep getting them. Not sure if it's someone specific who is doing this (I think it is, actually), but what can/should I do? It's annoying, and after the warning pops up that my firewall has neutralized the attack, my browser acts weird for awhile. I also keep getting occasional 'load error' and other errors while browsing. I have everything updated (windows, firefox browser, and virus software) automatically.
Do you think I should call my ISP or the FBI? Or can only businesses that get DOS or DDOS attack call the FBI? This is really irritating.
I recently reformatted my PC as well, before I did that, I was also getting 'echo requests'..but those have stopped, at least. Now I get DOS attacks. Argh!
Any help would be greatly appreciated! :) thank you in advance. :)
