My remote desktop has been extremely slow today. Usually this is because my brother is doing P2P stuff. So I filtered out his MAC address. Normally, this makes it so fast it's like I'm sitting there.
But this time, it was still super-slow. So I rebooted. Still slow. So I check my event viewer in case my computer is having some sort of problem. I start with the Applications section and see nothing of note, then go to the Security section. There are hundreds of login failures on account Administrator from 10/14. They are all like a millisecond or two apart.
So it was kind of scary, but at the same time not a big deal because you can't even log in to my Administrator account from Remote Desktop. I have it disabled. So someone wasted a bunch of time, basically. Even if it wasn't disabled, I have a password that even a computer would take forever to guess, and I allow only 3 login failures before a 20 minute lockout. It would have taken centuries to get in.
