unfortunately more than %30 of Americans have not only already spent the bonus, but they are also about three-eight months worth of salary behind in debt.....
Instead of posting here this information you should have let the people at the institution know about this. I am sure that they would have appreciated the heads-up before their machines started to get probed. [I already let several people that I know at that institution know that their University has had a posting related to security about it on/.]
A quick whois on the domain would have led you to someone that can quickly close up that DNS leak.
It is true that they used to very slow taking care of security issues; and once even had a finger pointing/blame game with one of their employees when their security had been breached.
Recently they have been pretty good about correctly handling things.
Here are some juicy parts that I have issue with... Someone I know once got close to a $9K bill as a result of #6. No they were NOT spammers nor doing anything illegal. They had co-located server which ARNet wanted to disconnect.
