Can we Sticky a "Do-Not-Scan or Use" List in the Proxy Section?

tahworld · Jan 12, 2014

Hi,

As some of you know, there are all kinds of proxies.
Proxies you are allowed to use, proxies you're not allowed to use, and proxies you REALLY shouldn't use.

Some IP-Ranges belong to governments and army all over the world. These ranges should probably be left alone.

The proxy section on this forum is really useful.
But I think, especially for newbies, it would be good to list the ranges, so they can be left alone.
Nobody gets in trouble that way or breaks the law.

I've heard about proxy scans gone wrong. Then your ISP gets notified.
Some proxy-scanning software has build-in lists. But not everyone uses the same software.

I've collected a few posts about this:

Half-way down the page in this wikipedia article there are some more:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Blocking_IP_addresses

LOTS more:

Maybe a moderator can make a thread, and post these in?
It doesn't have to be this thread since it's also a question.

Thanks!

It's a good idea, I've thought about writing up a big thread on them before. There's a big file that you get with proxyfire and a few others that has a lot of gov. ranges but it would need updated. I see you listed that one thread I made a while back, those places I listed there will absolutely fire off complaints to your ISP. The one Snel I think it was, I only scanned the 1 range of theirs twice, and both times I heard about it. Good idea for a thread though to give a little heads up for your average port-scanner out there, definitely will save you some headaches down the road if you steer clear.

Hey Cash!!
Thanks for your reply!!
Yes thank you for that thread, it is extremely helpful. I think it helped a lot of people!
And you're right, I read a post by you about "snel" I think it's Dutch or something, is that correct?
We definitely need an updated list, it would be really cool if we could like add ranges to it as time goes by and keep it updated!

@proxygo

At least he is trying to contribute. Saying that his info sucks while at the same time not wishing to present more accurate/better info isn't the way to go. The forum is about sharing and while no one has to share his info if he doesn't want to, we encourage those who do want to. Perhaps his info is not good enough but that 's better than no info at all.

yes sticky please for this i need this for my scans check out my proxy thread too lurker reporting for proxy duty

proxygo · Jan 13, 2014

jas at no point did i say his info SUCKS i said the sites are quoting some info from 1994
out of date today thats all i said and will be out of date not working

First of all, this is an IANA list of A class assignments and it 's using RFCs as its references. These things don't just change from one day to the other. So, it 's quite a safe bet that the US Department of Defence really owns the 11.*.*.* range of ips, for example.

While it 's just an A class list, and so not an exhaustive resource that would protect someone, one can at least avoid the obvious ones.

Also, I 'm not sure how you assert that 50% of those companies don't exist. I took a quick look and they all look familiar.

I have removed some posts, everyone should refrain from flames. Post your info and that 's it.
