The network admins may be smart but only in respect of the ISP they work for! 
If your in the UK they may cut you off straight away this is to protect them 
not you! as BT (and BT House in London) monitor bandwidth usage primarily so 
they can screw extra money but more importantly they have the power to cut an 
ISP off so any ISP will do the usual 'strike first ask questions later' in 
your case I think you'll find even though you are an innocent victim they 
will ask you to take the domain name down so that spammers will be driven off 
the net.

That is wishful thinking but its the only way to fight it 
(We had to destroy the town to save it)

Just thought I'd give my two penneth worth :-)
