PhuxOred - UCLA spambot

Happy Friday Everyone. Apparently we have only four more days to live before the nucular war [sic].

In actual news: the rise of the machines. Regular visitors may have noticed a few changes hereabouts. For one, the captchas are gone, enticing spambots to leave their little electronic bowel movements on the blog.

There is a *very* passive-agressive bot trap lurking behind the form. Ordinary comments pass as usual, any that fail a battery of tests get rerouted to a script that tries a number of methods to catch or kill the bot.

So... if you have a comment to make about, say, viagara and mortgages email it to me rather than using the form. The script is intended to total web browsers (legally, no funny business with viruses), please accept genuine apologies if affects anyone commenting in good faith.

Enough disclaimer, let's look at the log :-)

Each dot represents one minute of bot time spent receiving image tags pointing to huge jpegs courtesy of google. Check out the URL in the second spam comment, from the bioinformatics server at UCLA (fascinating course, btw). I emailed their admin about it but the contact email bounces. Curious that.

So, why do these front lace wigs look so natural? Well, first of all, let it be said that full lace wigs look even more natural than front lace wigs - full lace wigs can be styled in many different ways and even worn up in ponytails without looking like a wig. This is because the hairs of full lace front wigs are individually tied to the lace wig.
