Yes, we know.
That was a forged post by a USENET vandal known as
"hipcrime". Dippy hates
USENET, and especially it hates
news.admin.net-abuse.email, so it wrote a
piece of abuseware known as "newsagent" that allows it
to forge supercede
posts and force follow-ups to flood NANAE with
thousands of "WTF" posts
such as yours. This is nothing new. Every few months,
drippy figures out a
new exploit and spews out its filth until it gets
blocked back into its
intranet again.

What to do about it is simple. First, look at the
headers of a few forged
posts, and filter on the commonly identifiable
elements. Lately dippy's
been abusing news servers in the Middle East. If you
subscribe to a service
such as Supernews, the filtering is already done for
you. Second, if you
feel you MUST reply to a dippyspew post, look very
carefully at where the
post will be sent before you send it. This will ensure
that you don't
accidentally pollute another group thus doing dippy's
vandalism for it.
Third, now that you're immune to this id10t, join in
the defense by posting
a message similar to this one whenever you see a
dippyspew in your
newsgroup. The more people who know about dippy, the
less damage it can do.

No. It's a robo-posting script. It mass-floods a
newsgroup with
randomly-generated garbage posts that use somewhere
else's return address.
It mass-floods one newsgroups with garbage posts, and
sets the replies to go
to another newsgroup.

This is because the second newsgroup's readership is
rather technical in
nature, and flooding the second newsgroup directly
won't have much effect,
as most of the readers use sophisticated filters to
automatically delete the
crap. So the general idea is to find another
newsgroup, that's typically
inhabited by people with below-average intelligence.
Flood it with crap,
then count on a bunch of weak-minded fools to innocent
reply with a general
"what-the-*** was that?" response, and hope that
enough of these bloomin'
idiots respond so that their replies, that are
directed to a second
newsgroups, are enough in numbers to cause some
disruption.

Fortunately, I'm happy to inform you that this attempt
appears to have
failed. There's been only a handful of those bloomin'
idiots who've
actually replied (most of them turned out, of course,
to be top-posting
brainless morons, no suprise).
