For safety, everyone should consider doing this on any windows rig:
route -p add 190.97.165.179 {your computer ip}
Also we should flood that IP address with invalid responses and DDoS him

That doesn't help. People who have been affected needs to contact the owner and host of the IP with the evidence.
Why wouldn't that help?
Doesn't help to determine why it's happening or who's doing it, but it will
prevent it from happening.
No it would not. You serious don't know how this type of stuff works. You're assuming this IP address isn't a breach server. You're assuming he can't simply change IP addresses and/or server location.
DDoS this guy's servers is childish, aside from being illegal,, Looking up the IP address, it appears to be hosted by an
ISP, you're liable to get your IP filtered, then blocked and/or reported.
Report the IP to the ISP it routes to. I would also report it to ARIN. ARIN does not like their IP space being use for malicious activity, especially with the shortage of IPv4 blocks.
clevermining's servers have been hacked.
The peeps running cleverminings servers apparently are not that tech savvy. All my miners were being routed to 190.xxx and this is from 5 different subnets from 3 different ISP providers.
You don't know what you are talking about, you should read the posts by Kalroth over at the Wafflepool thread
