Yea, this spamgang must be prolific, I found them in the usenet, recent complaints http://groups-beta.google.com/groups?q=KANJABAKA.BIZ ...
Probably most of you are familiar with the database profile that Spamhaus.org has regarding details of the most profific scumbag spammers on the Internet. Very...
Has anybody developed a DNS server for the web browsing client that would filter spammers. Something that would prevent the curious from even being able to get...
DNS resolves a fully qualified host name to an IP address. What you are suggesting is theoretically possble, but not practical. The DNS server would have to...
I would argue that it's more than "theoretically" possible. I would submit it's far harder for those "Family Friendly" sites to maintain their records than it...
Allo! ... The idea seem to be good. The application on large scale is another story. For myself, I don't want to see my ISP using this DNS service whithout my...
You make some good points, but one must understand that the DNS server in question must "think" that it is authoritative for those thousands of domains. ...
I may be exposing my ignorance of DNS but here goes anyway. When a client makes a DNS request to say www.yahoo.com, if my DNS has it cached, it simply returns...
Regardless of which DNS server has cached information, one of them had to query the root servers to get the data to cache in the first place. The only way to ...
Trying to expand my admitted limited understanding of DNS I stumbled on this webpage. http://pgl.yoyo.org/adservers/#foursteps This guy is doing kind of what...
The premise behind DNS is to distribute the database across the entire Internet. Centralizing the database at, fo instance, Yahoo or Spamhaus is counter to...
I fully agree with you that the original design of DNS was completely distributive and did not anticipate filtering. The question is, can filtering be added...
I seriously doubt that AOL has ony four DNS servers. Aol may have four DNS servers in their domain registration, but I will bet they have dozens, and possibly...
Allo! ... Not a big challenge. This task don't need to be done on real time. The secondary DNS server, the one who will be use by the users, can be updated...
I think you are right and I was wrong about how many DNS servers AOL has. I originally thought that they were hosted on four huge mainframes and that's why...
How do I track down a spammer in my yahoo groups? Ive begun receiving these messages... I have deleted the website address advertised, in the following: ...
First of all, you are mixing apples and oranges. You are comparing 500 million users querying a service to a service of 500 million users. Spamhaus probably...
Allo! ... You too! Here, the idea is to put the final destination unreachable, so the varius spam-vertized sites can't be visited by the spam victims. The...

I thought setting it so that anyone can post just meant anyone already in the group, rather than any yahoo member at all...? Im pretty sure Ive never come...
... I manage at least 3 groups that allow anyone, non-members, to post. Examples are in my profile. Its a great arrangement for help groups as long as you...
I'm curious what actually generates more DNS traffic, a mailbox or a user. In my case, for example I have some users with a 12+ year old very public email...
Saw the "Has anybody developed a DNS server for the web browsing client that would filter spammers......." and the discussions on the 'Client Side DNS'. It was...
Each time a remote machine mail relay opens an SMTP session to a local SMTP server, the local SMTP server queries Spamhaus. That could be for one E-mail or...
... Most spammers have learned to limit the quantity of recipients sent to evade filtering this way. So we are talking about many queries if not exactly the...
... It took less than two minutes to upload 1500 zones into your DNS server over a local LAN with a bandwidth of, I am guessing, 100 mbps. A T1, a typical ...
... It doesn't have to happen one after another. Since we are spoofing being the Primary to begin with, none of them have to be secondary name servers and all...
