Does anything in the logs remain, which might give an indication where the
perp connected from? This is, of course, always assuming s/he didn't connect
through a hijacked open proxy.
As far as the malicious code is concerned, there's not much you can do.
Telefonica de Espaņa, Romanian ISPs and Kornet (220.88.27.11) all have a
long and sorry history of ignoring abuse complaints (google for them in
news.admin.net-abuse.email for example).
This said, your first course of action should be figuring out how the box
was cracked in the first place and locking it down rather than going after
someone who got in.
