GLOSSARY

* Acceptable Use Policy: Guidelines for services and products for Web Hosting and Internet Connectivity.

* Address/IP Spoofing: Inserting forged routing information into network packet(s) such that the origin of the packet is misreported, which causes return packets to be misrouted.

* Binary Files: A file containing bits or bytes that do not necessarily represent printable text. The term binary file usually denotes any file that is not a text file, such as executable machine language code. Special software is required to print a binary file or view it on the screen.

* Bulk E-mail: Any group of messages sent via E-mail, with substantially identical content, to a large number of addresses at once. Many ISPs specify a threshold for bulk E-mail (e.g., 25 or more recipients within a 24-hour period). Taken by itself, bulk E-mail is not necessarily abuse of the electronic mail system. For example, there are legitimate mailing lists, some with hundreds or thousands of willing recipients.

* Commercial E-mail: Any E-mail message sent for the purposes of distributing information about a for-profit institution, soliciting purchase of products or services, or soliciting any transfer of funds. It also includes commercial activities by not-for-profit institutions.

* Cracks: Distribution of registration codes for software in violation of the software license, or distribution of any software intended to defeat copy protection.

* Deceptive On-Line Marketing Practices: Marketing practices that present a false image of the advertised product (or of the advertiser). One example of a deceptive on-line marketing practice would be an E-mail that purports to originate from the recipient's ISP or from a well-known company. Other examples include fraud, multi-level marketing, or any commercial or non-commercial activity that is conducted for the purpose of confusing, misleading or misinforming the E-mail and/or Internet users.

* Electronic mail (E-mail) Spam: Unsolicited E-mail from which a recipient cannot unsubscribe, or unsolicited E-mail to a recipient who does not have a previous business or other relationship with the sender.

* Forged Routing Information: Routing information which is misleading or incorrect or which would tend to disguise the origin of the routed material. Usually refers to information that is not generated by any routing device (such as a mail server), but is inserted by a party using software which is designed to produce false routing information (headers in the case of E-mail).

* FTP: File Transfer Protocol. A standard way of transferring files from one computer to another on the Internet and on other TCP/IP networks. FTP is also the name of any of various computer programs that implement the file transfer protocol. Customers can also retrieve files by FTP using a web browser.

* MMF: Make Money Fast Schemes: Messages that "guarantee immediate, incredible profits!," including such schemes as chain letters.

* Mailbomb: Delivery of enough E-mail to an electronic mailbox to overload the mailbox or potentially overload the system that the mailbox is hosted on.

* Newsgroup Spams: A public forum or discussion area on a computer network. All users of the network can post messages, and every user can read all messages distributed worldwide by the Usenet system, covering thousands of topics.

* Packet Spoofing: Emitting a network packet with a source address you do not have permission from the owner to use.

* Ping Flood: Intentionally flooding a system's pipeline with ICMP EchoRequests. This can reduce the bandwidth available for legitimate use and, if severe enough, can bring a pipe down.

* Pirated: Any copywritten material, commercial or noncommercial, that is used, transmitted and/or stored without authorization.

* Pyramid Schemes: A get-rich scheme in which you receive a message containing a list of names. Recipients are expected to send money to the first person on the list, cross the first name off, add their name at the bottom and distribute copies of the message.

* Smurf/Fraggle: https://users.quadrunner.com/chuegen/smurf.txt The "smurf" attack, named after its exploit program, is one of the most recent types of network-level attacks against hosts. A perpetrator sends a large amount of ICMP echo (ping) traffic at IP broadcast addresses, all of which have a spoofed source address of a victim. If the routing device delivering traffic to those broadcast addresses performs the IP broadcast to layer-2 broadcast function, most hosts on that IP network will take the ICMP echo request and reply to it with an echo reply each, multiplying the traffic by the number of hosts responding. On a multi-access broadcast network, there could potentially be hundreds of machines to reply to each packet. The "smurf" attack's cousin is called "fraggle," which uses UDP echo packets in the same fashion as the ICMP echo packets. A "fraggle" is a simple re-write of "smurf."

* System Kernel: The central part of an operating system. In many operating systems, only the kernel can access hardware directly. (Also spelled "kernal.")

* Unsolicited E-mail: Unsolicited E-mail is any E-mail message received where the recipient did not specifically ask to receive it. Taken by itself, unsolicited E-mail does not constitute abuse, and not all unsolicited E-mail is undesired E-mail. For example, receiving "unsolicited" E-mail from a long-lost friend or relative is certainly not abuse.

* Unsolicited Bulk E-mail (UBE):E-mail with substantially identical content sent to many recipients who did not ask to receive it.

* Unsolicited Commercial E-mail (UCE): E-mail containing commercial information that has been sent to a recipient who did not ask to receive it. * Worms: An automated computer program that probes, breaks into, interferes with or disrupts service for one or more computers, networks or services. Similar to a virus, Trojan horse or other disabling device.
