I have about twenty hits on my firewall from him. I know exactly who he is. I'm wondering if there is any law enforcement agency in the US that takes care of things like this.

Make it your life mission to track him down. Then punch him in the face, stat.

Imagine all the people wasting time. At least you'll have a mission.

be more specific, what is he trying to do? is he just scanning you, if so, he's not "hacking" you

Call your local police. I'm sure they'll be right out to help you. :roll:

Your computer's welfare is very important to the law enforcement agencies of America.

:D I doubt geek4life that there IS an law enforcement agency that takes care of hackers. If I were in your shoes i would just beef up the firewall/security, get the hacker's ip adress(if it's static) and put it on the ban list in the firewall, and hope for the best.:):thumbsup:

There are divisions of many law enforcement agencies that actually do handle computer crimes. This however is unlikely to be considered a computer crime or even show up on their radar. Your best bet would be to do a whois on his IP and contact all the email addresses that show up (abuse@, support@, service@), any email that might have a body behind it. Attach a copy of your logs and tell them you suspect this user of malicious activities toward your computer system. It is likely nothing will come of it though.

Only a dolt would be defensive about the true definition of "hacking."
