Introduction

What is Bad-Behavior?

Bad-Behavior complements other link spam solutions by acting as a gatekeeper, preventing spammers from ever delivering their junk, and in many cases, from ever reading your site in the first place. This keeps your site’s load down, makes your site logs cleaner, and can help prevent denial of service conditions caused by spammers. More information here.

What is http:BL?

Http:BL is a way for website administrators to take advantage of the data generated by Project Honey Pot and keep malicious or suspicious IPs off their websites. The service works by publishing DNS records for IPs we have seen conducting suspicious or malicious behavior online. Website administrators can then use this data in order to restrict access to their web servers for these IPs.

Can anyone use http:BL?

You need to have an account and an access key in order to use http:BL. To be granted an access key you must be an active participant in Project Honey Pot. Qualifying as an active participant is easy: simply install a honey pot, donate an MX record, or refer people to the Project Honey Pot website. We operate on the community-based principle that those people who contribute to a service should be the ones who benefit from it.
