I am currently 'playing' with apache, does anyone here ever get tired of;

I mean this attack was directed at an NT/2k/XP machine.  I have whois'ed the 
IP and have someone to complain to, what is the general attitude here 
towards responding to provocation such as this?

I do realise that .190 is not a specific address and will probably not be 
traceable back to the purpotrating computer.  But someone needs a good stiff 
slaping with a dripping wet trout.
