|I just looked at my logs and I see a lot of portscan |activity the last three days from the netblock controlled |by Exodous Communications Inc (64.41.207.50).

Interesting to note, that now that this one source for pings and tracerouts from inside the Exodous adderss space, they will be the first ones suspected in similar types of traffic from any Exodous address space UNLESS they publish their IP's.

Note that the ip address in the above is not near the one posted in the logs in the 'IP address range?' thread.

I'd be even more concerned it there were ties between this company and InQit.
