Actually, we wrote a little tool to systematically track the 
dotted quads associated with the vano-soft domain name. We have
been seeing a steady stream of new dotted quads advertised for
that host, but no where near thousands per day.

There have also been some Usenet posts talking about this particular
site and the methodology it uses; see:
