The rdns for these two addresses is ec2-54-189-149-10.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com. ec2-54-244-239-249.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com. From http://uribl.com/datafeed_faq.shtml Why are DNS queries from my cloud instances (AmazonEC2/Softlayer/Rackspace/etc) blocked? Large subnets owned by Amazon and other cloud providers have been blocked due to high volume. Because amazon has so many networks, a single user may have multiple mail exchanges on multiple networks, and we have no ability to correlate this and block individual high volume users. We are looking at ways of improving our query limit system for those coming from large virtual hosting providers such as Amazon, but at this time we do not have anything in place. We do offer discounted Datafeed over DNS rates for low-volume, cloud hosted users who are effected by these wide ranging blocks. See Requesting the Datafeed Service and choose 'Cloud Hosted' on the request form. > root@aws:/home/user# > root@aws:/home/user# host -tTXT 2.0.0.127.multi.uribl.com > 2.0.0.127.multi.uribl.com descriptive text "127.0.0.1 -> Query > Refused.
