Contents of a platinum spamware CD obtained.
After larting the hell out of the hwhclub.com spammers (Hamilton, wave source, webfarm site), I managed to obtain the software they used. Platinum has a list of 23 million addresses in it, with lots of duplication. If any local admins are interested in checking what addresses of theirs are on the CD, please contact me. As a FWIW, there are a shitload of Xtra(299), Clear(131), Voyager(202), Actrix(472), Iconz(442) and Ihug(691) addresses. If they're anything like the manawatu list (182 addresses), only 1-2% actually work and the rest could easily be pressed into service as spamtraps. Many of the manawatu addresses were cancelled because of spam levels and almost all of them were scraped from usenet postings. Surprisingly, few addresses at newer NZ ISPs (less than 2 years old) seem to be listed...
