If so....well then...problem solved, and devs get a cookie :)

Actually, upon closer read it checks the IP of the NS record.. So it's essentially blacklisting the IP's of the DNS servers that spammers are using.


So, for http://www.merchantsoverseas.com, it would look at your NS records:

        MerchantsOverseas.com.  18185   IN      NS      auth20.ns.wcom.com.
        MerchantsOverseas.com.  18185   IN      NS      auth10.ns.wcom.com.

And would check the IPs 198.6.100.37 (auth20.ns.wcom.com) and 198.6.100.21 (auth10.ns.wcom.com)
