Sobig Worm Attacking RBL Lists?

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the show-me-the-proof dept.

Ubi_NL writes "According to the Register there is a close correlation between the DDOS attacks on a number of anti-spam lists and the presence of the Sobig virus. Now that Monkeys.com is gone, and spamhaus.org is taking heavy blows, are the spammers actually winning the battle by using viruses?"

    I hate to put it like this, but you people are idiots. Just because noone who's being attacked is talking publically, doesn't mean that nothing is being done or we don't know whats going on.

    Evidence has been gathered, and more is known about the source of the attacks then is made public.
