This has been discussed at length but I will try to summarize
DXSpider has been modified to verify spots based on the user, node and
IP address that is broadcast when a user connects.
The top nodes in the list below are CC cluster nodes that do not
broadcast this data. Since it is Windows based, it has problems dealing
with maintaining lists of users/ip addresses.
The flooding we have seen is direct injection by modified node software
sending node to node protocol fake spots.
The person responsible needs to be tracked down and reported to the
authorities as a hacker doing internet DoS attacks on a public service
and arrested. This could be done by analyzing logs and mapping the "via"
tags back to the source and finding the IP addresses used.
