Looking around, I believe the issue is that the IP has ended up on a master game list, so we are now getting the queries directed at US.

Having written multiple versions of a Quake III master server (again, much self-hate) I pulled one of my old master query scripts out of mothballs and checked. You are not listed on the CoD4 master server (assuming you did not alter the UDP frames you originally posted). If you were you would be seeing "getInfo" and "getStatus" queries, but you're not. You're seeing the "getInfoResponse" and "getStatusResponse" packets from a server which is listed on the master server. This is an attack, nothing sinister is happening.

Your best bet is to filter all UDP traffic except for what you need (DNS comes to mind). You might also want to get in contact with killku...@hotmail.com and encourage them to install the previously mentioned patched server executable to prevent their server from being used as an attack amplifier.
