Has anyone seen this before? I'm sure someone has, they come in waves of 4 at a time and I keep getting a wave or two every day or other day. They are hitting a contact form on my site that you can only access if your UA is disabled/non-existant (hence the blank field at the bottom that is autofilled if you use the contact form). I'll post more but I'm going to bed.

Yeah I got that too about a day ago. Was the BCC an @aol.com address?

They are reporting the same sort of attack on the phplists forum. It is going for the subscribe form.

Exact same here.
Although it hits my login page mostly; with an `accidental` hit on the contact page.

Also, no useragent is set (it's non-existant).

I figure it is attempting to find faulty contact pages that it can use to send spam.

the bcc-adress is an aol-adres. I've seen 3 different aol-adresses so far.
The to field is set to something from the domain it's hitting, alltough the user-part is garbage.

Anyone have any suggestions on how I could use the current spam ip-list to mass block these pricks via apache for example?
