Although SIMS doesn't "log" the IP address... if you glance back over the 
log snippet... thanks to the hacker wannabe flooding the SIMS server, 
there are a few rejected HTTP connections, all from one IP address. They 
overloaded the number of HTTP connections, and at that point SIMS logged 
the rejected attempt.

So in a way... they were nice enough to log their IP themselves.
