Hello Everybody,

Starting immediatly, I (and others) will be canceling all posts
that originate at FLORIDA-ISP.COM's news server
(news.florida-isp.com).  This news server seems to be in place
solely for the perpose of spamming.  Namely, ads for
ESCORTGUIDE.COM, SCHOOLGIRLZ.COM, and various other ads for
IP addresses owned by KNOTWORK.COM.

It should be noted that the spam that flows from this site is
virtually all sex ads, posted to virtually all newsgroups with
the word "sex" in them.  Including, alt.sexual.abuse.recovery.
One nettizen out there has alerted me that they have been hitting
that particular newsgroup pretty hard.  Oh, the alt.binaries.*
newsgroups are also being carpet bombed with this spam.

From where I sit, KNOTWORK.COM is rogue.  Any site that rents one
of their IP address is rogue.

System admins:  You are highly encouraged to block all traffic
from the following IP blocks:

   208.223.162.*
   198.166.227.*

Nettizens:  If you see any post with FLORIDA-ISP.COM in the path,
please forward it (with full headers) to HELP@UU.NET.  Put preasure
on UUNet to stop peering (feeding) with FLORIDA-ISP.COM.

Howard
