Billabong,
It tells me its someone who uses BT ADSL and has a static IP address.
Which isnt really much at all

I want to know the name of the person/company who uses this before I call in the FEDS

I beg to differ, at least it isolates it to one STATICALLY ASSIGNED IP.....rather than a dynamic range.

Did your firewall give you any idea of what they were attempting, or was it just pinging your machine? Not all firewall alerts are genuine hacking attempts.

Here are 5 of the 200+ logs I have for the last 2 days ....

TCP Packet - Source:217.41.61.178,2333 Destination:edited- [DOS]
TCP Packet - Source:217.41.61.178,2331 Destination:edited- [DOS]
TCP Packet - Source:217.41.61.178,2329 Destination:edited- [DOS]
TCP Packet - Source:217.41.50.234,4923 Destination:edited- [DOS]
TCP Packet - Source:195.66.109.228,3486 Destination:edited- [DOS]

As you can see its a little bit more than a port scan

You'll never find that person from that address .. It's bound to be some sort of proxy.

Phil, scuttle away and dream of your make believe DIY engine.

If indeed it does exist, you will get someone else to map it and pretend you did it
all yourself like you did the last engine !

Just before you call any feds in (and because the original log has been edited), post the destination port (source port shows nothing, needs to be the destination port at your end) that the DoS has been hitting......I deal with this kind of thing in work, and I find that 99% of any "X is hacking me" reports I get sent in are due to virus-activity, and the owner of the infected machine doesn't even have a clue what their machine is doing in the background.

[Edit/Addition]: Forgot to say, the only way you'll find out who that is from BT (if there's no matching IP in the PF-login database) is by going through the Police in the event of it being intentionally malicious, and by the Police High Tech Crimes Unit issuing BT with a RIPA request (basically, asking for further information on the customer the IP address is assigned to, to further their investigation). The Data Protection Act prevents BT from giving this information out in any other circumstances (apart from possibly a court-order, I think).
