adprofile.net reportedly appeared in a flowers.com ham as:
<td align="middle"><a href="http://tx.adprofile.net/tx/r?CID=12&M=3&sid=800ABC123"><IMG height=90 src="http://a1234.g.akamai.net/f/1233/1234/1a/www.1800flowers.com/800f_assets/images/flowers/images/banners/swift me too120X90.gif" width="120" NOSEND="1" border="0"></a></td>
Yet it's listed on WS by Bill Stearns. This may be a false positive. Does anyone have any more information about it?
Catherine Hampton says it's not on her spam radar and others have said that they may be web spammers on guestbooks, wikis, etc. but not email spammers. They seem to have some minor NANAS.
Feedback wanted. :-)

OK we know they appear in spam, but does adprofile.net appear in any other ham? Would folks with ham corpora please check this one?
TIA,

They have been hitting our spamtraps heavily for over a year now (April 2004, which is as far back as i could check), mostly arriving via SBL'd relays.
Catherine Hampton says it's not on her spam radar and others have said that they may be web spammers on guestbooks, wikis, etc. but not email spammers. They seem to have some minor NANAS.
Could this explain the high traffic rating on Alexa (http://www.alexa.com/data/details/?url=adprofile.net)?
We've had these guys blocked for a long time and have received no complaints.

Havn't seen spam refs to adprofile.net in a while, did see it in "worldwideexpress" spam in early 2004.
