Yes, roadrunner, mediaone, attbi....

For New England, I think all ip's start with 24.128....at least for now.
That is where all the request are coming from. I sent in the edited access
log to mediaone abuse. I know someone has a creative way of blocking the
request but it's not very high on my priority list. I was just floored when
I saw 2mb ( not really that big, but for a not public web server it is..) in
the accerss log.
