Ariel:


If you don't have these links already, they contain many resources for DDoS attack prevention and protection:
http://staff.washington.edu/dittrich/misc/ddos/
http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/22.html
http://www.denialinfo.com/

The only few things you can do on your end are:
	TCP Intercept
	Rate-limiting
	Conacting your upstream ISP
	Contacting ISP managing the sources of the attack

Other people might have more/other suggestions.

You initial email asked for AboveNet contact. Did you get some assistance and if so what was the resolution? This is very important for us to know so we can kind of keep track of cooperative ISPs and the ones that just ignore these problems.


Thanks,
Jon
