If you put those into an IP lookup utility, you'll find that they are actually 
all "planetlab" related.

I believe that what is happening is you are being DOS'd by a botnet created by

To report a suspected violation of this policy, contact PlanetLab Support 
([email protected]).

If that doesn't stop it, sue them. Call the FBI. Contact everyone on the 
steering committe: http://www.planet-lab.org/consortium
