Is there any way to trace ip addresses back past the originating ISP.
I've been using whois but it seems limited.
Thanks in advance

Chances are that any sort of multi-host attack will use zombies as proxies.
Even if you are able to chase the IP address to someone, chances are that their
system has been hacked and they have nothing to do with your attack (other than
providing the zombie). And they'll deny it's their system causing the problem.

You are SOooo right, denial of responsibility is what happens!
I am aware of instances recently where windows machines are obviously
hacked and email addresses appropriated. It's no use telling the people
they deny it.
