Ok David, Thanks for the lesson.

The AWS is working with TCP/IP.
You told that attach was UDP.

<<65.33.209.229
originating from Herndon Virgina
was attacking my machine at the udp level at port 80.>>

You was looking to Admin-Page and see the intruders IP address in the lines,
right ?
Maybe intruder was attacking AWS by TCP/IP too ?
