Back then, we used to call those "script kiddies".
Most of them are still. I've read a analysis of the log of a purposedly exposed system a while ago. Don't know the exact numbers anymore but : ca. 9 of 10 are bots placing a backdoor. Of the human visitors, most are just looking around, poking things, getting bored, bye. And 2 of all of them were (cybercriminal) professionals who knew what they're doing.
Right, that one, thanks!

They won't use their computer for a while, if that helps.
