I have a C# Web Application, and we are getting banged repeatedly by a web
crawler at a specific IP address. I did an internet lookup on the IP address
(http://www.ip2location.com), and it just says it is owned by Cox
Communications. I don't know if it belongs to a specific customer of Cox, or
if it belongs to Cox themselves. What is the normal procedure for finding
the owner of the IP? Do I call Cox and complain about abuse? Or is there a
better tool for finding out the actual customer that is running on the IP so
that I may contact them directly and find out why they are banging our site
so often? I know I can just block the IP address, but right now, I can't be
sure if it's one specific user on a dedicated IP, or if it's one person on a
shared network IP.
