BTW: I've reported many, many folks (from the US) that have their Linux
boxen taken over by script kiddies. Most times the folks are *very*
responsive and apologetic. In every case, the folks put up a standard
install without any hardening or firewalling.

The best call to action here is to have standard installs be hardened
against take-over from the internet.

The box attacking you is more a victim than you are... and nuking the
clueless is not what we advocate in the OpenSource world. :-)
