If someone is flooding you with a full pipe blast you can't do anything about it. Your ISP is the only people and if they're idiots or unequiped to deal wit it then you're screwed.
This is why hosting from home is a terrible idea.
You should ask if your ISP can block port 80 incoming requests. Realistically you need to stop hosting from home.
Thanks a lot for the fast reply.
I am not hosting it at home, but for example on Hackforums under Steam and gaming you see the thread called "Sourceexploits.net sucks". I'm not quite sure how they got my IP, but there is several easy ways through the pathetic Source Engine.
Indeed, they were idiots, (No offense, I talked to a girl). I kept saying that I had big packets in-coming and she just told me to reset the Router, I said I was sure it wouldn't work, though that was her only solution.
I did so, and it didn't work.
She then redirected me to the Administration of my ISP which is now watching it.
Worst thing would be my ISP saying they can't do crap.
