Done, I have also send *ALL* SPAM I receive here in Australia to the
Australian Communications and Media Authority for investigation.

If someone is stupid enough to send a URL to me in a spam, I send it to
some IT guys I now at a major university whos mainframe has the coolest
little webpage downloader you ever saw hooked up through "frame relay",
some serious internet bandwidth. Through its various worldwide redirectors
that hide the mainframe's identity, it's capable of a few million webpages
per SECOND and can really make those expensive hit counters on some
spammer's commercial website really screw up fast!

| I debated..... oh what the hell.... you mentioned frame relay
like it was some uber fast technology....
"Frame Relay" = "some serious bandwidth"???
Yea, years ago - not today - still stuck in the past I see.
Currently, FrameRelay services are offered at a maximum port
speed of DS-3 (a sloooow 45Mbps). In addition, the maximum
trunk speed in a Frame Relay core network, (if ATM is used), is
OC-48 (2.5 Gbps). You didn't specify...
Nowadays, Frame is considered quite old technology. In 2006,
native IP-based networks have all but displaced frame relay. With
the advent of MPLS, and dedicated broadband services such as gigE,
10gig and even 100gig, or DWDM/CWDM, the end is here and gone
for the frame relay protocol and encapsulation.
Now, if you had said OC192, 10/100gig or a wavelength / lambda.....
Or Internet 2, ('cause it's an institution of higher learning)...
THAT's "serious bandwidth"
Just pullin' your chain Larry (frame IS considered very old school though)
Even a (dedicated) DS3 pounding away at a web page can do the trick.
If applied properly, of course. Now, if there is pay-per-click involved.....

I suppose it depends on how MANY OC-48s the core is connected to. I'm sure
it's more than one, eh?

Alot of institutions got involved with I2 - one
VERY fast network. I worked on it when with my
last company - very cool stuff.
I'd bet, if you asked, you'd find that the "major university"
you mentioned wasn't actually using frame - probably a gig or higher
using layer 1 or 2 - I doubt they'd still use frame. Maybe if they were a
smaller school - but if a 'major' almost certainly they aren't using frame.
Anyway... carry on...

It was probably some Federal grant program designed to reward political
contributors in the computer business for funding someone's last campaign.
The university may not even know the mainframe exists...(c;
Reminds me of doing electrical inspections on USN aircraft carriers. You'd
be tracing a wire through a bulkhead and it didn't come out the other side.
One such inspection resulted in the discovery of an entire MACHINE SHOP
that had been constructed and outfitted as the ship was being constructed.
Some engineer screwup forgot to tell the bulkhead installers to put a HATCH
into the space when the bulkheads were filled in, so noone knew it was
there until an inspection panel in the bulkhead was opened (lotsa
screws/watertight) and the astonished inspectors crawled through the hole
and switched on the lights for the FIRST time...(c;
"Anybody got a torch and a watertight door we can borrow?"
Didn't someone find a fairly large computer system some students had
discovered in the basement of one of our universities that had been
forgotten until the students had been caught distributing porn from its IP,
fairly recently?

So, you advocate the use of abuse against abuse? By mainframe you mean??

Yes, burn their spammin' asses and run up their access bills.
Isn't that awful?....fighting back against an attack instead of just
sitting on my XXX and taking the incoming rounds?
It's a good thing I'm not at the switch or the Iranian, North Korean and
Israeli nuclear weapons programs wouldn't exist. It's why cruise missiles
were invented.
