Artists Against 419 Releases Mugu Marauder

Posted by timothy on from the satisfying-anwers dept.

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."

    No need to worry about that! Im with Telecom in NZ and they think that ALL users should be limited to 10Gb of monthly bandwith. So far I have managed to consume over 400Gb of bandwith in just over 2 and a half months. I think I will give this a try just to annoy them further as they sold me an 'UNMETERED' connection only to change their minds without telling me and *supposedly* capping me to 10Gb.

    Mwhahahaha, kill two lots of scammers with one stone (or is that dsl modem?)
