				| 
 |  
				| I found the following when checking the access log to my server: 
 "GET /scripts/..%255c%255c../winnt/system32/cmd.exe?/c+dir" 400 429 "" ""
 
 is this an attempt to hack into my C Drive? and if so, would they have managed to get any information from it?
 
 I currently have my server  in a folder on my desktop.

				| Yes it is almost certainly an attempt to "hack" your server, it is very unlikley that they succeeded though, i've tested that exploit locally on my machine and it failed. _________________

				| Thanks for that, appears like it was an attempt to hack me.  I found this really good site which enables you to track such attempts - and report them.
