Right now one of my websites is under attack. It's only at the annoying stage at the moment. A dozen or so ip addresses are each sending requests for the same bogus file 3 or 4 times a second. The request is identical between ip addresses including the referer "download".

Several of the addresses are in the comcast network, several more belong to cox, a few belong to rr and at&t. One is from New Zealand and one is from Chile.

I've sent mail including a small except from my logs to abuse@comcast|cox|rr|at&t.

The response is disheartening. All four sent a form letter back to me talking about spam, spam and more spam. It is is not an email issue they are not interested.

You would think they would want to send an email to their user suggesting they check for viruses and other forms of malicious software. But no.

sigh.
