Reading SANs Internet Storm Centre feed and I came across this interesting log entry - The most hated IP address of 2005.

Most Hated Netblock:195.225.176.x - 195.225.177.x (AS31159)
Provider: Netcathost, Kiev, Ukraine
Reason for claim to fame: Hosting exploits, browser hijackers and CoolWebSearch related annoyances since several months. Ignoring, bouncing, or rejecting any complaints to the abuse contacts.

Update: beehappyy.biz is being implicated in the currently ongoing WMF 0-day exploit mania. And guess what beehappyy.biz resolves to ? 195.225.176.38 - my favorite netblock again. Null-Routing, anyone?

More available on the Microsoft Security Response Centre Blog.

    One thing to note is that it is not a definitive rane but merely the authors “nomination”
