Maybe they meant 29 IPs were probing.  We saw around 35 of 
your IPs either 
scanning port 2967 or actively attempting to exploit the Symantec 
vulnerability against systems here.

Very possible. However, this still seems a bit extreme for implementing
a "permanent block" of this scale. Also, there should be some method for
notifying the affected site and correcting the issue.
