Hi, I got one of those letter saying my home network may have been used in a Dos attack? It's dated the 26th may and the attack was logged for the 22nd. Not really sure what to do other than do some deep scans on my PC and android phone.

Follow the advice in the letter and at https://www.virginmedia.com/help/security/denial-of-service-attacks
