SGI.COM hosts are being abused by ircwar kiddies/scriptkids on the IRCNET network (ircnet.demon.co.uk, irc.stealth.net, irc1.us.ircnet.net and other servers)
These kiddies are taking irc channels, compromising furthur servers and launching ddos attacks, and appear also to have compromised the SGI email services, since abuse reports were met with silence. Today they launched a spoofed ddos attack from ip`s with

a /whois report follows:

Feel free to connect to ircnet and verify this for yourself.. #irclords is a known kiddie channel, frequented by kiddies who think they are the "lords" of irc Also #bnc is a channel used for the trading of "psybnc" accounts on compromised servers.
