All the same, it would seem to be an easy and cheap abuse to address, at the gtlds. Why are these obvious trojans are being propagated by the root servers anyhow?the root servers are responsible how exactly for the fast-flux issues? Also, there might be some legittimate business that uses something like the FF techniques... but, uhm... how are the root servers involved again?
Nobody's saying that the root servers are responsible, only that they are the point at which these domains would have to be squelched. In theory registrars could do this, but some would have a financial incentive not to. Also I don't believe registrars can update the roots quickly enough to be effective (correct me if I'm wrong). Given the obvious differences between legitimate fast flux and the pattern/domains in question it would seem to be a no-brainer, technically at least. -- Roger Marquis Roble Systems Consulting http://www.roble.com/
