Thank you all for your feedback.

Yes, Spamming is the problem, The Hacker had been using tor (or something
Like it) to get my Cobult server to send out his spam. So that why I'm
trying to learn about it. So I can find a way to Identify an attack and stop
it.

Thanks again and I will let you know if I have more questions.
