This is the pattern of the CodeRed virus that was going around the net a few
months ago.  You are safe from it of course since it is targeted at windows
machines running unpatched versions of IIS.

As to who you should report this to I did a lookup on the ip address and this is 
the data

Since it seems to come from a user in China I doubt there is anything at all you 
could do.

Even tring to get ahold of the system admins in China is very very hard.  I
wouldn't worry about it at all it looks like a random scan of your domain and
from a client that is set up to scan whole ranges of addresses no worries.
