A few minutes later, or from a different nameserver, I get
Name: vano-soft.biz Addresses: 131.220.108.232, 165.166.182.168, 193.165.6.97, 12.229.122.9 12.252.185.129
This is a real Hydra. If everyone on the list looked up vano-soft.biz and removed the trojaned boxes, would we be able to kill it?
Nope - the guy would get more trojaned boxes, no shortage of unpatched windows machines on broadband.
There are two ways to go here -
* Nullroute or bogus out in your resolvers the DNS servers for this domain --> two problems here. One is that the spammer doesn't use vano-soft.biz in the smtp envelope, and second, he abuses open redirectors like yahoo's srd.yahoo.com
* "Follow the money" - find out the spammer / the guy who he spams for, from payment information etc. Sic law enforcement on them.
