Post Xmas Pwnage

[Peter Hickman]

Everyday I run a script that checks various logs to get the ip addresses 
of people who have tried to hack my system. I usually get 5 - 10 new 
addresses a day from people trying to brute force my ssh connection. 
Over the Christmas week I got 2,700 new addresses. I assumed that this 
was because people were connecting their new PC to the internet and 
getting owned.

In the past 24 hours I have just added another 3,300!

Is it me or is anyone else seeing this?
