[AusNOG] Web filter a runaway success: Exetel

I'd be interested in knowing whether the "20,000 hits against a
blacklist
of alleged child porn Web sites" is just 'DOS backscatter' or whether it
is
actual port 80 with a http GET to the actual URL?

And even then, malware like conficker generates this sort of traffic...
