First of all, What leads you to think is a DoS? Why would anyone bother doing so to your webserver? I'm inclined to think like Daniel Pitts, that it may just be a multi-threaded Download Manager someone is using. If so, yes, throttling the bandwidth per IP will do the trick. PS: a long long time ago, I happen to have found this site with lots of files, anyhow, to click on each to download will give me a sore hand, so I used a download manager, well, after a few minutes the server sent me some broken packets, this was in win98 btw, so win98 went down and I got a reboot. Well, I got my firewall up, didn't get rebooted or shut, restarted the manager, after a few minutes the server cut off my downloads. I gather they thought I might have been DoS'ing or just Leeching the bandwidth, dunno. :|
