Back when I was running Q151, we had this, and it was the beginning of the end for us. Of course, not all Asian users are bad, but many of them are hackers. I would definitely suggest blocking these IPs.

Hacking and phishing are now in the front of your door. Everyone can hack and phish if he/she knows how. TO put an example I have sent an exploit to a friend to see how it works and then she sent me their password I received on my mail.
IU dont do nothing, but phishing is easy to do. Copying the paypal code is easy, and spoofing mails too. I received many of that emails on my mailbox, so I understand how it works.
Ofcourse, Im not a phisher. Hate spam as how I hate the evil.

^^^ Why are you telling me? I'm not the one who's got the problem anymore.

It was Utrust-Hosting who posed the question. I believe you meant to direct your reply at him/her.

I have the problem. 90% of the free sites I host are Chinese! It's amazing. And some turkish. I've been keeping eye out, but none are doing anything illegal! So oh well ^_^

I get alot from china and asia as well but I believe this is due to our location. They don't seem to be to much of a problem. But they seem to like softcore porn there from what i have seen there is a lot of softcore porn sites setup.
