ISP McColo Shut Down After Connection Found To Spammers

ISP McColo was taken offline Tuesday by its upstream ISP after a research report by several security vendors alleged McColo helped cybercriminals promote spam, online fraud and child pornography.

Gives a bit of insight on how botnet herders operate.

I just wish every single ISP would block these siff guys permanently....
 
I read this earlier on, and branched out from the article. To say that I was left feeling shocked is an understatement. All that bandwidth and resources wasted because of spam.

I'm glad they are down, and hope that a string of other targets is next.
