Re: what to do?

[Jayson Anderson <sonick () sonick com>]

Depending on your accessibility/business model, I'd send either
80.68.204.50/32, or 80.68.192.0/20 (from RIPE) to null0 on your border
router(s). If you are unable to do so at the border, or your router IS
unix[like], use iptables or somesuch. Just make sure that you drop their
packets on the floor instead of giving them the dignity of an
icmp-unreach; that way you can make the most out of their remote timeout
thresholds. Obviously discretion is not one of their main criteria...
