Hello everybody,

As of today, we started noticing spamming bots or drones on our IRC network.
They enter channels, scan for users, exit and spam users with following
messages:

<kyzclvqfc> EEEEEEETHHHOOOM! MINDJAIL!! HE IS TRAPPED!! GET HIM OUT!
http://61.48.32.73:3030/mindjail.zip

 

<pwdujizao> Ever heard of a thing called mindjail? Check it:
http://61.106.85.184:3030/mindjail.zip

 

Did anybody else notice this behavior? It seems to be a new work. I searched
on Google for "mindjail", but my search did not return anything.

 

Thanks
