Not a good idea.  This could be construed as a DoS attack.  While
teergrubing happens because of a connection originated by the spammer (and
there's nothing wrong with our end taking a really long time), your idea
would be self-initiated, and would essentially have to flood the website
with HTTP requests.  A classic DoS.

Plus, is it really worth your time?

Subject: [SA-exim] teergrubing


someone mentioned a while back that teergrubing spammers is pointless, 
as the machines that send the spam are often hacked

anyone have info on the machines that spammers host their shoppingcarts 
on though?

i've been thinking of doing something similar, but with the .html pages 
that are advertised.
