Interesting. Lately I see a lot of scans coming from a network range 
and going to port 80, but sofar I haven't seen scans coming from a
a private IP address.

Anyone got ideas on what the scanners are looking for on port 80?
Is this something similar like 'Firewalking' on port 53?

Cheers,

Subject: Odd TCP Probe w/ 192.168.1.* IP

Hey,

One of my machines just got probed by a set of IPs
during the same _TCP_ probe, one of which is an illegal
192.168.1.*

My understanding was that 192.168.1.* addresses wouldn't
be routable, and that having the probe alternate IPs
also concerns me.  

So I wonder what kind of danger there might be here.  
Could this be some kind of "stealth" probe.  What good 
would it do a scanner to alternate IP's ?  Is the 
192.168.1.* some sort of primer?

Someone please enlighten me as this challenges my knowledge 
of IP networking.

Thanks,

Joshua
