Hello John Doe, I welcome any further comments you have. We have to get past people such as yourself, and your blasphemous and false statements. This is the same issue with the recent media and self-proclaimed "Security Researchers". Fly-by-night mind you. To help you out in your claims: Yes, we did house a client whom had quite a run with their client's from various locations, such as Russia. That Client is no longer hosted on our network. I myself spent all of monday afternoon, night, and tuesday morning shutting off EVERY machine they had leased in our Billing System. I'm currently working to scan further and see if there's anything I may have missed. Yes, Russia is very well known for Virus and Malware writer's. Yes, we have had issues with malware distribution from our network. This was directly and near singularly related to the former client of ours. We did have another client, Hostfresh, whom had their share of malware issues. Both have been completely and effectively removed. The server's leased to both of them have been canceled, and their machines have been shutoff. Let me know if there's anything else you'd like me to state to the public. We're on a rocky road right now. But it IS starting to smooth out. Thank you for your time. Have a great day. --- Russell Mitchell InterCage, Inc. ----- Original Message ---- From: Mark Foo <[email protected]> To: Bruce Williams <[email protected]> Cc: Christopher Morrow <[email protected]>; [email protected]; Joe Greco <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, September 23, 2008 11:08:21 PM Subject: Re: YAY! Re: Atrivo/Intercage: NO Upstream depeer NANOG: Look, the people posting here who are trashing Intercage are pure security analysts -- they know and understand the evil that is Intercage. STOP TRYING TO ASSIST INTERCAGE -- you are effectively aiding and abetting the enemy. Intercage/Atrivo hosts the malware c&c botnets that DDoS your systems and networks. Intercage/Atrivo hosts the spyware that compromises your users' passwords. Intercage/Atrivo hosts the adware that slows your customers' machines. Don't take my word for it, DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=intercage+malware You don't get called the ***American RBN*** for hosting a couple bad machines. They have and will continue to host much of the malware pumped out of America. THEY ARE NOT YOUR COMRADES.. These people represent the most HIGHLY ORGANZIED CRIME you will ever come across. Most people were afraid to speak out against them until this recent ground swell. This is the MALWARE CARTEL. GET THE PICTURE? Many links have been posted here that prove this already -- instead of asking what customers they cut off, let them show WHAT CUSTOMERS ARE LEGIT-- because there are NONE. > >> I would suggest a different Step 1.
