They're filtering through their servers (eg http://i.calltheshots.com/P=43&purpose=1&txtURL=http://www.redherring.com/pci/home.html )or closer to home: http://i.calltheshots.com/P=43&purpose=1&txtURL=http://www.scripting.com
http://i.calltheshots.com/P=43&purpose=1&txtURL=http://www.wiredfool.com
What's their range of Ip addresses?
According to men and mice, http://us.mirror.menandmice.com/cgi-bin/DoDig?host=&domain=i.callTheShots.com&type=A
216.34.6.247
From looking at my server logs, they are passing thorough the browser signature: ip: 216.34.6.249 Hmmm, matches the men and mice pretty closely.
agent string: Mozilla/4.61 [en] (WinNT; U) code number: 200 host string: www.wiredfool.com pathargs string: searchargs string: size number: 3516 threads number: 2 ticks number: 24 time date: 11/16/99; 4:24:42 PM url string: /And a little script to get rid of their class C from my web server. This resides at config.mainresponder.callbacks.controlAccess.blockCallTheShots (this is on a real recent version of frontier, YMMV)
if client beginsWith "216.34.6." { scriptError("You are Not Allowed, this is my server and I call the shots.")}Poof, no problem, although it would be more fun to redirect them....
if client beginsWith "216.34.6." { scriptError("!redirect http://www.biteme.com")}Or direct them to the copyright code, or some other destination.
Active servers are fun.
