Artists Against 419 Releases Mugu Marauder
An anonymous reader writes "Similar in scope to the (now defunct) screensaver created by Lycos that targeted spam sites, the newly-released Mugu Marauder is intended to take fraudulent bank sites off the air by sponging up their bandwidth. Mugu Marauder can be downloaded at www.aa419.org/mm/ It's currently only available for Windows, though a Linux port is allegedly in the works."
Why not just post a link to them on Slashdot.
Or if the ISPs don't respond, pretend you're a reporter for a newspaper, or some other "authority" that'll make them at least look into it.
They're on Slashdot's front page. Isn't that cruel enough?
For more fun use the -U flag for wget, passes the string on as the referrer.
Such as:
-U "SLASHDOTTED 1.0/A"
-U "AND IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT, THEN HEY FUCK YOU"
-U "[insert long string here to flood logs]"
etc.

It's either a compressed and encrypted representation of everything on your hard drive, or else a fortune cookie in 4un94r14n 1337.
Sheesh, evil *and* a jerk. -- Jade
You mean to say Artists Against 419, after finally capturing Dr. Mugu Marauder, are now releasing him?

Dear Verizon Subscriber:
I am Dr. Muntange Dwambo, the nephew of the director of your internet service provider's Accepatble Use Enforcement division.
It has come to our attention that you are consuming an unusual amount of bandwidth. I am therefore here to give you a one-time opportunity. My uncle has recently passed away, and left me in control of THREE HUNDRED THOUSAND GIGABYTES PER MONTH of bandwidth. Unfortunately that bandwidth is only available to Verizon subscribers, and that company does not yet offer their services in my native Nigeria.
Am I the only one who heard Roxette to sing "I'm gonna get blitzed for some sex"?
or just link the offending website on /.
I mod down so you can mod up. Your welcome.
Damn, that sounds like a good idea. Kind'a like Training Day, but different.
