Protecting their website? Is this like cutting down all the trees to
prevent forest fires? Sending spam is easy. Faking email addresses is easy. Hacking website is an order of magnitude harder. Most hacks are done by "social engineering" the DNS to a new address. One would thing for the fvap.gov, this could be controlled. George Ruch wrote in message . .. ) wrote: The DOD has locked out the fvap.gov website in an attempt to stop military votes.

More info he http://news.zdnet.co.uk/0,39020330,39167419,00.htm Per the above article, quote Wanadoo and BT have both been hit by the blockade, according to sources familiar with the situation, and early reports have claimed that Telefonica and China Telecom are also hit. /quote If you look the amount of spam, trojans, etc. coming from these domains is legend. Look into the conversations at net.admin.net-abuse.email and the notices in net.admin.net-abuse.bulletins for details. The domains listed in the article and their associated address ranges are, IIRC, block on sight. In short, they're protecting their network. | George Ruch | "Just the facts, ma'am" |
