For nearly two months now I see constant attacks by a

What kinds of attacks?

Sending mail to the responsible
persons and providers abuse address didn't change a
things.

Even if there actually is something to change, why do you expect any
reaction? Welcome the real world!

Is there any official address where people can turn
to, when a provider doesn't react?

ICANN

After all there is
a good chance that the host in question is compromised.

Uuuh... if I was to complain about any compromised host trying to
compromise me, I'd need to write an extensive script and setup an
dedicated server just for keeping up.

Sure, I can set a filter on my side to block the traffic
but that does not solve the initial problem.

Well, what about describing your problem a bit more detailed?
