(Apparently a US company is in the process of buying them too). I'm currently trying to get an IP unlisted from SORBS. I got accused by Mathew/Michelle from SORBS for hammering tickets and got "pushed to the back of the queue". I submitted one ticket a day. I still have no response from SORBS about getting my IP delisted. (I don't even think it was our IP when it was blacklisted on SORBS). Shame, but apparently SORBS lives on :( For more info on this saga: http://www.sputcorp.com/IT/SORBS.aspx Unfortunately they have found new hosting.

]]> Comment on Scale and speed and spam by Michael Hampton http://www.thatfleminggent.com/2009/06/06/scale-and-speed-and-spam/comment-page-1#comment-4215 Michael Hampton Sun, 19 Jul 2009 10:24:43 +0000 http://www.thatfleminggent.com/?p=321#comment-4215 Web form spam? That's my specialty. How about a <a href="http://www.bad-behavior.ioerror.us/" rel="nofollow">solution</a> that not only eliminates the need for a CAPTCHA but works with WordPress, Drupal, MediaWiki, or some random PHP script you found on the net somewhere (or more likely whipped up in 10 minutes while heavily caffeinated)? You can find a SRPM <a href="https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=511841" rel="nofollow">here</a> if you want to play with it. As for memcached, I decided not to go that route to improve performance on my web server running a bunch of WordPress sites; I'm using php-eaccelerator, <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-super-cache/" rel="nofollow">wp-super-cache</a> and nginx. After using nginx for a year or so, I'm firmly convinced <a href="http://linux.ioerror.us/2008/07/migrating-from-apache-to-nginx/" rel="nofollow">Apache can go to hell</a>. (nginx supports IPv6 since 0.7.36.) Memcached has its place, but if you can avoid hitting the database or interpreting and running PHP code at all, then you're ahead of even what it will give you.
