Good question. JANET have a link on the JANET-CERT page
<URL: http://www.ja.net/cert>
for various different Incident Response Teams in Europe and the UK,
<URL: http://www.eurocert.net/euro-irts.html>

however the EuroCERT project ended on 15th Sept 1999, presumably due to
lack of funding.

Basically in the UK if you're on an academic network, a government
network or you're using a British Telecom service you're alright. Anyone
else, presumably, please contact your ISP. Or the Police, who in my
experience have no idea what to do anyway.

I pretty much grit my teeth and complain like fury to ISPs, hosting
companies or other upstream providers when I have questions regarding
problems sourced in the UK. Most of the time that gets a result, just
not always.

Anyone else from the UK care to comment?
