I was getting ready to do a SAINT run on the IP address to find out (I
needed the practice) when the initial ping timed out. <sigh>

 I have received a call from Exodus.  The machine (209.67.50.254) has been
removed from the network by request of the owner of the box.

      Great!, but..............

      a) Did they end up obtaining access to another site and will begin
              there?

      b) WAS the origination actually the box as people have claimed, or
              was it spoofed?

      c) There was a report that it had stopped earlier (As seen below
              from Roeland), is anyone still seeing it?

      d) Was the box just YANKED, or did someone actually try to find 
              out if there was someone/something on it and where its
              origin is?

Let me guess - the IP is 209.67.50.254, and they're trying to login to
nameservers as "root", sometimes a dozen times per second?

I'm seeing that IP address trying to telnet into my name servers (don't
know if it's as root, since my filters are blocking them). I also see
them trying to access IMAP on my servers.
