Proxy needs banning »

Ban Alestra.net.mx

Until further notice,
148.244.150.58
148.244.150.57
207.248.240.119 (new)
from Alestra in Mexico should be banned.

148.244.150.58 is an open proxy, that’s become the spammers’ favorite proxy. And I’m not just talking about ONE spammer here, but many. 148.244.150.57 isn’t as often used, but is also a proxy.

Until Alestra figures out what’s going on and secures those servers, they should be banned.

    Indeed!
    Searching Google for the phrase “block.alestra.net.mx” reveals the incredible amount of damage done through this first machine alone. Currently, Google reports 42,900 results for the search. Most of it is wiki spam, I guess.
