Starting about 6am eastern time, we began getting several hundred hits per second from IP address 195.188.22.6 to our WHOIS server. It appears that they were running a rather well endowed dictionary against the database. Beware - these are spammers (I know the address very well). Check your logs if you have any email servers or whois databases. This is a jerk from England who is a known fraudster.
