I am seeing this as well, but only from a few hosts on a single network.
I have contacted their NOC and asked them to "knock" it off - no pun
intended...
Could be some nimda infected boxes or whatever. Firewalls are stopping
it, but it is annoying to wade through the logs.

A single point of consumer data. I haven't checked by home router logs
since Monday night but I was seeing a pattern of significant incoming
port 80 traffic (I'm not running any services) over the last week or so,
similar to increased 1433/1434 traffic before Saturday's flurry.
Best regards,
