Hi Brian.

Is it always returning the same IP address,

Yeah, seams like that. For example, the (I think) non-existant dulladulladulla.net resolves to 64.94.110.11, as well as bollabollabolla.net or verisignsucks.net. So blocking any DNS reply containing this IP could be a way to prevent that Verisign "commercial break".

Did anyone else notice that the host behind this IP seems to be down? No ping reply, no answer to http-requests. No, wait: port 25 seems to be open (so there is a machine behind that IP). But no http, so no (more) commercial from that host.

Bye, Mike
