Referrer spammer
This spammer appears to purchase expired domain names, presumably to gain their residual web traffic. Then he referer spams the domains for a time. As of October 2005, he seems to be using one domain at a time, and changes them every week or two. Complaints to the ServerMatrix webhost and the Fujian Province Network of China Telecom have gone unanswered. --BD 13:08, 10 Oct 2005 (CDT)
Here's an example of an offer to buy a domain by this spammer. What's interesting is that according to the ICQ number, she's (!) from Russia.
I noticed an increase in traffic on annelisabeth.com, and suspect this spammer is responsible for a share of that. The top referrer has 1075 this month (july 2005), and this spammer has used up 66 megabytes of bandwidth so far.

This info leads me to believe the spammer is also a software developer. He (she?) made Icon Grabber (FlyDragonSoft.com) and Audio CD Burner. The website for the CD burner (mp3cdsoft.com) is on one of the same IP addresses as a spamvertized site. There's also a program called E-mail address Extractor that looks like spam support software - it scans SMTP addresses for accounts! I found that in an e-mail from 2001 to a list.
