To report a botnet PRIVATELY please email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------- Yanno, Most bot code I've seen has a 'kill' or uninstall feature built in.
It might be an idea to built a "counter" botnet, that will act in our favor when a botnet is found. We could have a bot infiltrate the existing net, and attempt to issue a number of kill/uninstall commands, so the net will eat itself. *shrug* -dan -----Original Message----- From: Thomas Raef [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, March 03, 2006 9:00 AM To: Gadi Evron Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [botnets] is there a list of botnet hostnames somewhere ? To report a botnet PRIVATELY please email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------- Oh yeah, this is a litigious society. We would have to establish rules for determining a botnet. We'd remove a host when we've confirmed the traffic has been stopped. I love that this mailing list is going. Nice job of getting things started. -----Original Message----- From: Gadi Evron [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, March 03, 2006 10:56 AM To: Thomas Raef Cc: Famozo Pikantini; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [botnets] is there a list of botnet hostnames somewhere ?

Some points of discussion: 1. Liability - what if you get sued? 2. Reliability - how do you make sure it's a botnet? 3. Continual reliability - how do you know when to remove a host? Etc. Etc. Like I said, we will do this if this first effort of a public mailing list succeeds, but I won't stand in the way of any other effort. I love diversity. :) _______________________________________________ botnets mailing list To report a botnet PRIVATELY please email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.whitestar.linuxbox.org/mailman/listinfo/botnets _______________________________________________ botnets mailing list To report a botnet PRIVATELY please email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.whitestar.linuxbox.org/mailman/listinfo/botnets
