    By itself, there is nothing wrong with such an address. But if its
    not in your local /etc/hosts file, I'd sure trace it down if you have
    to go around to every machine and do an ifconfig to find the machine
    useing it. And if its legit, add it to your /etc/hosts file to speed
    up the lookups. If not, take the offending machine down and fix it.

    You do have a firewall such as iptables setup to NAT and MASQERADE the
    users I assume.

    Things grinding to a halt in mid-afternoon sounds like the pipe to the
    net is being filled up with something. Running etherape on a machine
    that can see the whole local network might be educational.
