Script Kiddies and Their Effects

Hi,

First, let me start out with info about my server. I'm looking for some type of resolution to this and hopefully stop it from happening.

AMD Duron XP 1200+
512 MB RAM
FreeBSD 4.8
Plesk 6.01

Now, we are being attacked by DDoS bots that are on only about 20 different machines. Now each bot is running through a script where it's sending a connection out every open port on the infected machine and requesting the website on the one port, port 80.

Does anyone know of a way that we could prevent this or possibly block this from continuing?

Last night's traffic logs ended up being just over 3 gigs by the way.

Thanks,
