Cyber attack on Georgia: from servers inside the US

They said the command and control server that directed the attack was based in the United States and had come online several weeks before it began the assault.

The two most hijacked and bot infested server farms in the United States - The Planet and RackSpace...

God I hate them. They are so slack on their security that the bots are running wild and launching attacks from compromised web sites on their servers.
