I've been slowly compiling a list of known botnets should anyone care to filter, or check them in your netblocks if someone in your range is passing off garbage, etc. Information has been passed from others admins having to deal with these pest. Care to pass on a host that you're seeing I'll post it for others to see as well. Perhaps when I have spare time, I may or may not throw up something where admins can check, add, hosts they're seeing. Don't know if I want my connection getting toasted for doing so, but it could be something informative, a-la spamhaus. Bothaus anyone?
The problem with that is the list rapidly updates and must be maintained with some level of frequency and there's a level of trust involved in it as well. Going after the bots is lesser effort. The controllers are a priority. -M< -- Martin Hannigan (c) 617-388-2663 VeriSign, Inc. (w) 703-948-7018 Network Engineer IV Operations & Infrastructure hannigan@verisign.com
