More Trackback Spam

More trackback spam is coming my way. Thanks to the good folks at mp3se. They seem to be somewhat related to hqhost.net, which The Spam Huntress has had some dealings with. I am not quick to blame hqhost.net, they might just be a semi shady company providing anonymous proxies to spammers and not the actual spammers.

Doing a quick search on mp3se, it seems like they don't actually link to any of my music, so why would they trackback an entry, except for 'Search Engine Optimization'? Stupid fucks.

Here is the whois record for mp3se.com:

Googling Azazar & Partners, and Mikhail V Yevchenko comes up with almost nothing in the way of results. I've added 'mp3se.com' to the global referrer blacklist. Usually I just let the spam-catch plugin deal with trackback spam, because the other trackback spammers always try and trackback older entries. So when I see them come in I can blissfully let them linger in 'un-moderated' land. These guys trackback fresh entries, which are automagickally approved. I might have to change that. For now the referrer blocking works fine.

Here is their signature on my apache log in case that helps out any other sleuths:

203.92.128.3 - - [12/May/2005:12:18:01 -0600] "POST /comment.php?type=trackback&entry_id=435 HTTP/1.1" 200 99 "-" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.01; Windows NT 5.0)" "-"

Trackback Spam Part II
I'd really rather write part III of my series on DIY Electrical Play. But I got another piece of trackback spam (see my original entry here). So here is more information about these fucknozzles. This time the trackback was apparently from areaofmus
