Cool, funsec spam. This is, after all, a sales pitch, no?

Cheers,

Subject: [funsec] MD:Pro - Malware Distribution Project

Hi List,

For information - On 01 February 2006 we will launch our 
Malware Distribution Project (MD:Pro) service, which will 
offer developers of security systems and anti-malware 
products a vast collection of downloadable malware from a 
secure and reliable source, exclusively for the purposes of 
analysis, testing, research and development. For a preview of 
MD:Pro, please visit http://www.frame4.net/mdpro.

Bringing together for the first time a large back-catalogue 
of malware, computer underground related information and IT 
security resources under one project, this major new system 
will also contain a large selection of undetected malware, 
along with an open, collaborative platform, where malware 
samples can be shared among its members. The database will 
constantly be updated with new files, and maintained to keep 
it running at an optimum. MD:Pro will contain around 120.000 
downloadable malware samples by the end of 2006. There are 
currently 6500+ files in the system (and counting).

A product of many years' research, cataloging and compilation 
of hard to find information, this subscription based service 
will be extremely attractive to anti-virus/anti-spyware 
manufacturers, developers of IDS/IPS systems, etc., along 
with large corporations and ISPs. Registrations will be 
limited to corporate customers only.

Key benefits are:

- A single, secure, and reliable download resource
- Vast amounts of historical data, along with the very latest 
malware sources
- Custom system, designed to provide maximum benefit to 
anti-malware research staff
- Contents updated and maintained continuously by skilled 
security engineers
- Systems monitored 24 x 7 for maximum possible uptime and 
availability
- A non-public list, made available for the purposes of 
analysis, testing, research & development

PLEASE NOTE - The system is currently under heavy 
development; we are due to go live 01 February 2006, and as 
such, are not accepting any registrations for now (we are 
keeping applications pending until then however, and will 
allow access after go-live). As mentioned above, 
registrations will be limited to corporate customers only.

Best regards,

Anthony Aykut
