They host on softlayer, which I block entirely, but I've seen them bounce off the firewall 3 times 6/23, 6/30 and 7/1.

Other than the 2 lines of text on the bot page all their server returns is the Red Hat test page.

I'm impressed.

Bill,
I'd almost wager that keyplr denies them also (same for Amazon on another submission).

He's likely just posting "heads up" as has long been a forum practice.

Course, I could be eating my hat when he replies ;)

Yup, just a heads-up. Hadn't seen the bot before. And I do block that range, and almost anything else with the words "soft" or "layer" in it :)
