Osirusoft Blacklists The World

>From Slashdot:

"As of today, Osirusoft, distributor of the SPEWS and open relay blocklists,
among others, is no longer operational. Servers using these lists (including
the FTC) are currently rejecting ALL email. This shutdown seems to be in
response to a several-week-long DDoS attack on Osirusoft, SPEWS and others,
resulting in both sites being down. This has caused much discussion on
n.a.n-a.e, including the suggestion that the attack is somehow related to
the SoBig worm. The spammers must be hurting if they can devote these kinds
of resources to attacking blocklists."
