“69.50.182.154″ - is it just me?
The a$$-clown going through “69.50.182.154″ has been pretty persistent in trying to drop comment spam on my server over the last few days. I would almost say the behaviour is borderline ambitious. In fact:
localhost$ grep "69.50.182.154" access_log | wc -l303
localhost$
(that’s since this morning 2am). And:
localhost$ zcat access_log.1.gz| grep "69.50.182.154" | wc -l1398
localhost$
(that would be last week)
So Emil has earned himself already a permanent place in my heart for providing an open proxy to the world, but I can’t believe that nobody else is being targeted - or are you being bugged by “69.50.182.154″ as well?
Hi. I found your page because I was looking for a way to report this guy and see if others have been getting bugged by him. I found out he’s been targetting my file mt-comments.cgi which I have long since deleted when I migrated to Wordpress.
Are you sure this is an open proxy?
I’ve had quite a few hits from that network. What I’d consider master spambots mostly.
I believe the bots are wielded by people with accounts on those machines. Might even be colocating them.
But then I haven’t done a proxy check, so I wouldn’t know for sure.
