Hi Scott: >> The IPs that we list are those that were sending viruses in the past; therefore, they will likely be sending spam in the future. <<
I wonder, whether most "corporate" PCs (with identifiable, fix IP addresses) are more likely to be protected behind firewalls or mail servers with virus scanners - while "consumer" workstations (with always-changing dynamic/dial-up dsl/cable) ip addresses are more likely to be clueless and thus more likely to be infected. So - if some dial-up/dynamic PC gets infected, that IP address will likely be assigned to someone else who happens to connect tomorrow? Is your test eliminating any "dial-up/dynamic" IPs, since by definition the infected/spam workstation will change IPs? How do you account for businesses using Internet gateways, firewalls, NAT routers etc where one IP address could feasible represent a large number of different workstations? I have some concerns, how reliable such a test possibly can be, if it doesn't have an aggressive "automatic de-listing" policy (similar to Spamcop's).
