[ SNIP ]


 The big difference between Lycos Europe, and a script kiddie with
 zombies is that Lycos is mature enough to use restraint 
and not knock
 down websites with brute force.  They're attempting to use the
 politically correct "grown up" way to attack someone:  economics.

I didn't know there was a politically correct way to create a
BotMonster and rule the Internet by emminent domain.

Yeah, that's exactly what they're doing!  It's a plot to TAKE OVER 
THE WORLD.  You figured it out!

It's about giving the spammers what they want:  More traffic to their 
websites.  How can it be wrong when they send out 1 million emails 
that all say "click on this link" and 1 million computers actually 
click the link?  Who's in the wrong there?

Besides: "rule the Internet by emminent domain."  Isn't' that 
Verisign's job?



For all who are interested, the controller appears to live at
230.136.241.83

Interesting. I started it up and it immediately attacked 

Yahoo/Akamai: premium3.geo.yahoo.akadns.net

Then it went and attacked a slew of other sites and had nothing
but errors coming back. 

It also appears to attack sequentially from the top each time the dll
loads. They've miscalculated the speed at which spammers relocate. 
RBL's aren't realtime. Spammers are near real time.
