I cant believe this .. http://www.iprental.com Looks like anonymizer combined with what looks almost like a "rent a botnet", legit nodes (you sign up to download a client that makes you part of this botnet, etc) http://www.iprental.com/technical/ Speaking of a "commercial botnet"", there was something similar earlier - but that was a "download this bulk mailer" type operation, guys called Atriks, who got tracked so extensively by spamhaus that they seem to have kind of disappeared now. --srs
