More specifically I belive this is a Distributed Reflection DoS like what hit GRC.COM back on Jan 11th... Basically a flood of SYN packets to well known ports from IPs which appear to be spoofed. I've actually been riding it out now for over 2 weeks...
The tech support is completely inept and trying to contact security/abuse is pointless. Final realization of this was when I was investigating another PacBell customers box which had been compromised via another PacBell customer machine. After the forensics to get back logs and track the intrusion I tried contacting PacBell to no avail and then resulting it tryin to get in contact with their customer directly. Which I managed to do and resolve the issue... I've never dealt with such an inept company before.

Respectfully, Jeremy T. Bouse UnderGrid Network Services I've had a similar experience with their tech team. I was being dos'd from a college in Chicago so I contacted them to have it filtered out and they had no idea what I meant. They suggested I email
college to get it resolved. I started screaming at them how am i going to email someone when I am being attacked. Then they
live person that goes without the Admin at the transferred me to their
supervisor who was even more inept then they were. Frankly i gave up and just waited out the dos attack which lasted 2 1/2 days.
