No analysis as such.

The host causing the problems is in the University of Queensland.  The
host was not "owned" by the central networking group, so they simply
added an access-list to block all packets from the host, and last we
heard they were going to chase down the hosts owners to see how it had
been compromised (at this stage we assume it was compromised in some
way).

Do you want a report chased down ?
