We've been seeing excessive amounts of packet love to udp/53 on our of our 
DNS servers (136.142.57.10) on and off for the past few days (starting on 
19 April).  It hasn't been a major issue, but the CPU on that server, or 
on the firewall in front of it, have occasionally gotten somewhat 
unhappy...

We've been blocking the offending hosts at the borders as we see them, so 
the situation isn't critical, but if anyone could assist locating and 
re-educating the offending hosts, I'd certainly appreciate it.  If there's 
any indication that the offending hosts are pwnd, I'd be interested in 
hearing about any forensic info, if found.
