    And just how much use is knowing the user of a particular dynamic IP address at some point in the (possibly distant) past? :think:

    True, I was thinking if it is the person currently on a temporary ban if he has tried to hack my account they could make the ban permanent.

    Mind you I think he would come back again with a new name anyway.

    I would just forward all the details to the forumteam@ email address and leave it at that. At least that way you have reported the attempt to access your account.

    The FT may be able to have a look if they have time. Or may not. Ball in their court either way.

    It should definitely get the ISP correct. I'd check your internet settings and make sure you are using your own router and not a neighbours open router which I've seen happen before.
