Are you guys serious!? Did you look at this page: http://www.projecthoneypot.org/bots_and_servers.php The ads placed there do not look all that encouraging:

You almost feel that this must be a joke.

I saw that also, and wondered a bit about it. Good concerns.

I think you guys are making a mistake by participating. We could do this ourselves in a completely open and noncommercial way where the information is available in near real time.

I would be one of the first to join, though we did sign up at the honeypot site but now that you bring up your concerns I think I will hold off for a bit and see what it really is all about. --

I also signed up but haven't implemented the code yet. I have to open up a small hole in my security to do it. I haven't decided if I want to do that yet. Mainly because I'm lazy and rather not walk over to the firewall ;)
