    Note: Don't worry about the words use about modified, they are all fresh, I was just reusing a form.

Notes edit

Most of this spambot's IPs are from Fuzhou, China, otherwise it may be a open proxy.

  • The nature of this kind of bot is that it will be proxies - open/exploited/whatever. The only caveat is to be wary of blocking dynamic IPs (though some of those are not actually dynamic...)
