First of let me start by telling you Im running XP Home on my system,and using Sygate Personal Firewall (freeware). Now let me get to the point. When I was at work yesterday I recieved 4 or 5 DoS attacks on my system. When I relized what had happened I try to look at the attackers IP and ran a whois on he/she. It seemed to me that the person was jumping from router to router, because I really couldnt get a valid location, or maybe I just dont know WTF im doing.

What I really want to know is how I should go persue this the next time I recieve a DoS attack on my system, and how I could prevent it from happening by maybe patching whatever he/she used to attack.
