[pchelpers] Bad IP addresses

Since my guest book was set up, the system has been keeping a log of 
attempts by off site scripts to misuse it. The list is growing into what 
may be an interesting map of the 'bot nets' distributed all over the world.

These are infected PCs which attempt to carry out nefarious activities, 
often without the knowledge of their owners. I was just wondering- could 
this be the basis of an 'Is your machine infected with a bot?' resource?

I'm curious what your views are on this, since the list continues to grow.
