First off, I have been receiving constant requests to route traffic from one IP to another coming to my computer. The bad thing, it's the same one every 30 seconds or so. Running a firewall helps stop it, but it is beginning to bother me. I asked my isp's tech support if there was a way to notify the owner of that IP address that their computer is sending unwanted traffic and may even have a virus if they didn't know about it. Well, this is what I got back, edited of course so the responder won't sound like an amoeba:

If someone is attempting to access your system, please send a copy of your log file to our Security Group at [email protected] They will investigate and take the appropriate action.

Now, I asked a question about contacting the owner of the IP address and I got that garbage? I was not making a complaint, but I might make one about the tech support.

OK, does anyone know how to go about finding who owns a certain IP address so I can get an e-mail off to the administrator/ person to tell them that there is anwanted traffic sent from them to me? Should I care? Any advice?
