Brothers and Sisters,
I'm really not surprised. In fact, I expected more and sooner. As Christians, we should expect to be attacked, and OneNewsNow is definitely Christian. I didn't know that they used to be AgapePress, and I appreciate the information. I used to get Christian News every day from AgapePress, and I really enjoyed their coverage. I also greatly appreciate the excellent work being done by the American Family Association, Voice of the Martyrs, and many other outstanding Christian organizations that are desperately needed in this day and age. I will be praying that all Christian services are able to stay up and run at 100% capacity until CHRIST takes us home.
I don't know if my personal computer problems are related to the same thing or not, but I do have logs of thousands of hits from Beijing. I notified the other moderators and knew that I had posted numerous articles about Christian persecution in China. Frankly, I can't think of any other reason why my computer would be hit from Beijing. I don't do anything on the Internet except Christian volunteer work. I have a heavily modified firewall now, and most of the blocked entries are from China, mainly Beijing. I must add that this is not through Christians Unite. I start getting hits from Beijing as soon as I connect to the Internet. I mentioned this because I'm firmly convinced that Christians Unite is still one of the safest places on the Internet. Logs indicate my computer being hit directly from Beijing. LORD Willing, I will keep posting Christian News and Christian materials of all kinds. I don't plan to allow Beijing any control over what I feel led to do for the LORD. If need be, I'll block every IP block in China in my firewall. At this point, that just might be necessary.
The following list might help someone experiencing the same problem. They did manage to crash my computer, and I had to install fresh. I did file some complaints with my ISP and with net abuse contacts in China. I'll just say that it was a mistake to file complaints in China, and the problems became much worse. My ISP had no idea what I could do except firewall entries.
Column 1- just a note to help me describe the net range in a short way.
Column 2 - the actual firewall entry. the "/##" portion is an IP block notation used by my firewall and standard to describe a specific net block.
Column 3 - the last IP number in the net.
Note: Some of the listed nets are very large, even though the IP block notations look like they might be small. Many of the nets have sub-nets and are HUGE. Please note that all of the below nets are from China, and the majority of them are from Beijing.
