Atrivo on ESThost
Russell from Atrivo is talking about the spam situation on Atrivo on NANAB. And he addresses the ESThost problem.
Unfortunately, ESThost won’t be cut by Atrivo. Here’s what Russell says:
If I had the ability… I would cut Esthost as a client… But, in
doing so, it causes nearly a quarter if not half of the company’s
monthly revenue to be cut. That is not too good of a move nor
reasonably possible
So I suggest blackholing the whole of ESThost at major internet joints. That would really help!
Searching ARIN for the IP block of esthost.com kicks this back:
69.50.160.0 - 69.50.191.255
I suggest all serious dns providers and dyndns providers block that IP block. So that it’s impossible to point your services to that block.
[...] s it is hosted on Atrivo, a known host for many CWS hijackers, sites running exploits and spammers. Registration Service Provided By: ESTDOMAINS Contact: +3 [...]
[...] And most fishy of all, the domain was registered yesterday, using a privacy-protection service, on Estdomains (which has a poor reputation). [...]
are ? frigging kiddin me? Why the hell block them? they are nice local hosters indeed.
Not of 1and1 size, but still a resonable solution
wll are they really spamming?? i have my sites with them , i dont want to be penailsed. keep me updated
Sam: your site is spammy in itself, so not sure moving it will make much difference.
