Please help us keep Internet safer and cleaner by leaving a descriptive comment about 168.232.6.40 IP address
DNSBL* - is a list of IP addresses published through the Internet Domain Name Service (DNS) either as a zone file that can be used by DNS server software, or as a live DNS zone that can be queried in real-time. DNSBLs are most often used to publish the addresses of computers or networks linked to spamming; most mail server software can be configured to reject or flag messages which have been sent from a site listed on one or more such lists.
WHOIS** - is a query/response protocol that is widely used for querying databases in order to determine the registrant or assignee of Internet resources, such as a domain name, an IP address block, or an autonomous system number. WHOIS lookups were traditionally performed with a command line interface application, and network administrators predominantly still use this method, but many simplified web-based tools exist. WHOIS services are typically communicated using the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). Servers listen to requests on the well-known port number 43.
** Approximate Geographic Location - This is NOT the exact geographical location of the person/organization with the given IP address. However, this should still give you a good idea about the area/region where this person/orgranization is located.
Complaint by Michaelbut :
so i was poking around the webserver logs last night and noticed something fishy. that ip apears to be scanning every single port like its on some epic treasure hunt. i even tried a reverse lookup just for kicks but got nothing but crickets. it feels like a nosy neighbor peeking through your blinds at 3am. guess ill slap it on the blacklist and watch its little scans fizzle out. cant decide if its a bored script bot or someone doing reconnaissance for real. im half tempted to send it a friendly HTTP 418 just for the lolz. anyone else seen a ghost like this in your logs lately
