I am pretty sure that most originate by observing peer behavior on the Gnutella network. > One option was PeerGuardian (I only mention it having seen it fly by > in my news feed today).

As can be seen by this message, "http://www.mediadefender-defenders.com/msg01893.html"; ... this particular example may not be relevant to me, but some people might not like this IP to be blocked. Also, you might end up blocking http access to several media sights. The bad guys take advantage of the fact that whole sale ip blocking may not work well. Really you only want to block addresses at the service level that are known to be hostile with this service. This can be important as the IP might be NATed and several different interests might be there. Like a university, etc. These might be a source of ip addresses as well, "http://www.mediadefender-defenders.com/mediadefender_decoy_upload_iplist.zip"; "http://www.mediadefender-defenders.com/ips.txt"; >> Distributing the spam list could essentially work in the same >> fashion albeit due to its size, you'd want to do this >> incrementally.

At the very least, you shield all of your leaves from this crap. Unfortunately, GNET is very redundant (aka fault tolerant), so the spam may find a path anyhow. fwiw, Bill Pringlemeir. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
