I always have this image of a hacker in his mother's basement, looking
at targets which interest him.  But that's an obsolete idea.  Today,
there are thousands of zombie PC farms running automated scripts that
hammer at the door of essentially every IP address.  Every hour, every
day, automatically looking for a way in.  The script doesn't care if the
IP address belongs to IBM.COM or to bubbasbaitsupply.com, they hammer
them both the same.
