I´m still  working of solving this problem. I´m finally going to use this
mod of apache instead of using iptables, because with iptables I couldn´t
resolve the problem without affecting other valid users....
I have a preproduction system and want to update my servers soon and stop
this kind of attacks for ever. If I finally resolve it I´ll post how I did
it,

Greetings,
