Does anyone know of a new application doing queries against multi.surbl.org by using dnsstuff's web site, as in:
http://www.DNSstuff.com/tools/lookup.ch?domain=example.com.multi.surbl.org
If so, would you please let them know this is not the right way to query our SURBL lists.
It's possibly malware, but more likely some new misbehaving application being run on end user client machines (dsl lines, etc.).
You might try contacting Scott Perry, creator/maintainer, at "info at dnsstuff.com".

Actually Scott was the one who contacted me about it. He thinks it could be malware or perhaps a program to check web sites from Firefox. In any case it appears to be very poorly implemented, based on Scott's description of the behavior.
