Sounds like this attack is coming from a specific IP. Blocking that IP on a
router
would be one obvious answer.

Subject: DOS ATTACK

I have a friend that has a DOS Attack going on against their website.  It

is being done by someone with a very popular website trying to squash a
little guy.  He is doing it be placing 1 pixel by 1 pixel inline frames in
his webpages and having them load my friends webpage.  It is killing his
server and bandwidth.


What can we do to block?  The Server is W2K with IIS.

Thanks!
