I get this same error from the same ip everyday, is it possible that it's an attack? Also, what in layman's terms does this error mean. It's causing my host mucho trouble, and could get the boot, so your assistance is greatly needed.

From a single IP is suspicious. Have you looked up the ip? One option is to ban the ip in your hosts cp-panel. There are websites out there designed for load testing that can and are abused to attack boards. I won't link to one for obvious reasons.

The error most likely means you've exceeded max connections. What MySQL version are you using?
