Looking a little deeper...
I found some more odd things.
This is at a different timeframe, but still well within
the timeframe to actually be the hack attempt.
I looked in my Event viewer hoping to find anything else
that might point in the right direction, and I found these:

Event Type: Warning
Event Source: DNS
Event Category: None
Event ID: 5506
Date: 1/11/2003
Time: 5:54:53 AM
User: N/A
Computer: ANIMESERVER
Description:
The DNS server encountered an invalid domain name offset
in a packet. The offset is the error.
Data:
0000: 70 00 00 00 p...

Event Type: Warning
Event Source: DNS
Event Category: None
Event ID: 5501
Date: 1/11/2003
Time: 5:54:53 AM
User: N/A
Computer: ANIMESERVER
Description:
The DNS server encountered a bad packet from
192.100.77.5. Packet processing leads beyond packet
length.

I got about 10 of those all within 1 second of the first
one posted.
The IP that is listed is not an IP on my network. I am on
a dual nic card setup on my box. I have my external line,
all sharing turned off, then my internal lan card, which
has sharing turned on. Is it possible they somehow
confused my DNS server into thinking that they were an
internal user? And if so, can I pull logs of what they did?
