2004-04-01 — Improved
myNetWatchman Notification Routing Policy. Effective
March 1, 2004 we changed our approach to identifying
and notifying the responsible party associated with
myNetWatchman (mNW) detected security incidents. Previously,
we used a combination of reverse DNS, DNS Start-of-Authority,
and IP Whois information to identify the responsible
party. However, have concluded that this approach is
unscalable and ineffective for all but the largest network
providers.
2004-03-22 — Messenger
Spammers Now Fragging. Changes in UDP/1026 and UDP/1027
activity (usually attributable to Windows Messenger
Spam) show that message size is increasing beyond the
typical maximum packet size. A side effect of that is
a substantial increase in 'fragment reassembly timeout'
errors. Since a significant percentage of Messenger
spam is transmitted using a forged source IP, the unfortunate
owners of these IPs will likely notice a significant
volume of inbound ICMP error packets which can significantly
degrade performance.
