RE: [SURBL-Discuss] free host: greatnow.com
by Chris Santerre 22 Oct '04

22 Oct '04

I sent you info on the whitelist list. HUGE spam host for blog spammers. HUGE! They don't care who the heck they host for as long as they have money. I gave you quite a good list of examples. Greatnow.com needs to stay forever listed. They are scumbags. Large ones at that, not the fly by night ones. They just don't fit withn the normal radar we look at for SURBL. Steve C originaly gave me the submission. You will notice the file name they hit on contains 'blog'. You can look at some of the outright damage this domain has done to people's blogs around the web. --Chris >-----Original Message----- >From: Jeff Chan [mailto:jeffc@surbl.org] >Sent: Friday, October 22, 2004 5:34 AM >To: SURBL Discuss >Subject: Re: [SURBL-Discuss] free host: greatnow.com > > >On Friday, October 22, 2004, 12:10:38 AM, Jeff Chan wrote: >> Got an FP report about greatnow.com, an apparent free hosting >> company.

Strategies for killing abusive glue records
by Andy Warner 22 Oct '04

22 Oct '04

Has anybody on the list found a good strategy for getting registrars to terminate name server glue records that are widely used to provide name service to spamvertised domains. (i.e. ns1.fast111.biz) I've had good luck with a few registrars (Joker, GoDaddy), but at most, I'm running to a brick wall. Either the abuse folks are not empowered to remove glue records or they don't even know what a glue record is. It is scary how many folks who work for registrars think REGISTRAR-HOLD status will kill the glue records too when it only prevents the name servers from that domain being published to the roots in association with the domain in question). As it can be fairly time consuming to build a good case for killing a glue record, I wanted to see if other folks were working on this and if anybody might be having better luck. -- Andy Warner andy(a)andy.net

free host: greatnow.com

Got an FP report about greatnow.com, an apparent free hosting company. Based on DMOZ hits, they seem to have some legitimate uses. They also have a few NANAS hits. They are not in SBL. They probably have some minor abuse. Does anyone know anything more about them? Source is: /home/gorilla/black-gorilla-9_7_04_SCblog.txt:greatnow.com Jeff C. -- "If it appears in hams, then don't list it."

Fwd: surbl update
by Jeff Chan 22 Oct '04

[Joe asked me to forward this update. Thanks to everyone helping out with the project!] From: Jose Marcio Martins da Cruz Date: Thursday, October 21, 2004, 8:13:46 AM Subject: surbl update Hello Jeff, I've not enough time, at the moment, to participate on the list. I have a set of scripts to gather URLs from the spam I receive myself and from the spam on our postmaster mail box : around 5000 - 6000 messages a day. It seems to me that SURBL response delay becomes better each day. When I begun using SURBL, I was usually able to add some tenths of new URLs to surbl list. At the moment, I never add more than five a day, and most of the time, only one or at most three. It seems to me that this shows the excelent result of your work. Thanks, Joe -- Jeff Chan mailto:jeffc@surbl.org http://www.surbl.org/

I've thought the exact same thing. I wish the lookup page would put the added date and times. I realize that would be difficult, but man would it be helpful.

I was doing some research on kiddie pron. A bunch of whois email contact info came up similar. veryfast.biz So using our favorite set of utilities ;) , I found others linked to it. Thinking they might have something to do with the huge whirling dirvish of kiddie pron domains. It didn't appear that way. They appeared legit, but I had a small doubt I could have been duped. Those kiddie pron guys are pretty sly. But turns out they are whitehat, so I figured we should do a pre-emptive white listing on them. I don't think any of them were listed in an SURBL. --Chris (!esruc eht esreveR) >-----Original Message----- >From: Jeff Chan [mailto:jeffc@surbl.org] >Sent: Wednesday, October 20, 2004 3:27 PM >To: Chris Santerre >Cc: SURBL Discussion list (E-mail) >Subject: Re: [SURBL-Discuss] Recently whitelisted > > >On Wednesday, October 20, 2004, 12:05:43 PM, Chris Santerre wrote: >> In WS I have whitelisted the following thanks to responses >from Steve C, and >> Suresh.
