You can go to a site called www.samspade.org to find out more about a specific address. Sam gives you contact information of who/what ISP is hosting, names, phone numbers etc. I would recommend hitting your own network as hard as you can (after you get written permission from someone in the CIO capacity) and see the reaction that your defenses take, this will shed a lot of light on what's going on.
Also, if you want to go real deep, check out www.sans.org they have a great reading room for security threads.
