Linkspammer uses zombies
One of the recent linkspammers seems to be using zombies. I can’t find any other explanation for it. The machines are often on Comcast or other large US ISP’s.
I’ve seen the same type of IP numbers on wikis as well as comments.
Here are some of these numbers, most recent first:
70.245.74.149
ppp-70-245-74-149.dsl.hstntx.swbell.net
24.19.139.71
c-24-19-139-71.hsd1.wa.comcast.net
24.6.208.195
c-24-6-208-195.hsd1.ca.comcast.net
70.249.154.22
ppp-70-249-154-22.dsl.rcsntx.swbell.net
67.163.194.6
Comcast, but no reverse DNS
206.116.77.45
d206-116-77-45.bchsia.telus.net
24.200.233.83
modemcable083.233-200-24.mc.videotron.ca
69.247.99.209
pcp0012235515pcs.gadsdn01.al.comcast.net
68.232.231.254
68-232-231-254.losaca.adelphia.net
68.73.52.227
adsl-68-73-52-227.dsl.sfldmi.ameritech.net
24.60.90.194
c-24-60-90-194.hsd1.ma.comcast.net
69.247.99.209
pcp0012235515pcs.gadsdn01.al.comcast.net
I only went back as far as August 22. There’s more earlier on.

Does the referrer look like (DO NOT enter with JS enabled browser!): netbest.usa-nets.com/post_ag.php?start=50 or http://localhost/sp21.php?start=610 ?
