formmail - abuse contact for broadwing.net?

Hello,

we've been attacked (formmail exploit attempt) on 8 days in january from  
ppp-*.mclass.broadwing.net addresses.

It's the usual stuff, however, the sheer mass of accesses is noteworthy.
They sum up to 130640 accesses for said 8 days, resulting in < 35 MB of  
logs.

I tried to notify abuse () broadwing com several times, but only got back  
an automated received message each time.
So does anyone know a /working/ security contact for Broadwing?

I'd really like to get the plug pulled on the (likely) script kiddie  
pulling this stunt.

Robinton
