  1. I've got this guy trying a port scan on my network. My router is catching it, so it's not like he's getting in, but it sure is annoying to get security violation e-mails every few minutes. I've back-traced him to an ISP in Algeria, and sent e-mail to his ISP and to him personally asking him to stop, but the attack continues. I forced my router to renegotiate a different IP address, and tried to block his IP address, but I'm still getting 'SYN with Data' security notices.

    His ISP said they would look into it, but it would take a few days, which seems like plenty of time for him to finish a complete scan.

    Can you suggest any other steps I could/should take to thwart this jerk?

    If your on a more advanced level, try iptables on Linux. You will need knowledge of Linux and configuring the rules for IPtables. You will have more flexibly to block attacker IP address's, and the sky's the limit with what you can do.
