Suspected open proxies to be checked

A user has requested a proxy check. A proxy checker will shortly look into the case. 208.110.220.133 · talk · contribs · block · log · stalk · Robtex · whois · Google · ipcheck · HTTP · geo · rangeblocks · spur · shodan

This IP was anon-blocked two months as a proxy per a 3RR complaint. Discussion ensued here as to the quality of my evidence, so I'm happy to have it further reviewed. A longer block would be justified if the evidence is good.

Since the 3RR complaint, I found nmap saying this IP is running Squid. It reports it as a potentially open proxy. Opening it in my browser on http://208.110.220.133:8080 gives a holding page which says that it can't go any further and won't access the general web. Nmap calls it 'mta02.nationspetroleum.com' but a ping of that server under its own name resolves to a different IP which does not respond to ping. This site is provided with a Comcast business service. My guess is that it's an inadequately secured web server machine that won't proxy at this exact moment. This seems enough for a one-year hard block, especially since DeltaQuad *did* activate it as a web proxy on 8080. EdJohnston (talk) 04:33, 12 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
