Looks like it was open just a few days ago, but right this second I don't see anything. It does belong to the University of Texas, so i'm going to put this on hold, pending recheck. -- DQ (ʞlɐʇ) 14:53, 3 July 2012 (UTC)
Inconclusive. This looks like it's intended to be a streaming server/VoIP server for the University, and these services are not accessible from the outside; however, there are also indications this may be a compromised machine in a botnet, which we can't definitively confirm from the outside either. If there are any disruptive contributions from this IP address in the future, I would anon-block for a couple months. — madman 01:17, 22 July 2012 (UTC)

User is not directly blocked, here is their unblock rationale: I just tried to edit and found this IP address blocked. I am currently using a library computer, that I mostly use, to view and edit wiki pages. The reason provided is that this IP is an Open Proxy however seeing that I have been using this computer for a while now without any incidences I asked the librarian for information regarding previous users and his log showed that none accessed the internet while they were using it. As per the guidelines, we scanned the computer with Kaspersky PURE 2012 but found no malware. I may well be wrong, but is Spellcast right in the action taken?204.93.60.20 (talk) 11:35, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

Reason: Requested unblock.

I'll respond to this tomorrow. -- DQ (ʞlɐʇ) 03:06, 11 July 2012 (UTC)
Not currently an open proxy – There is no evidence that there is or ever has been an open proxy at this address. The block comment is "AnchorFree, Inc." but the IP address is not assigned to AnchorFree; it's currently assigned to Giglinx. Giglinx is a colocation provider but it also leases lines, and it is presumably the ISP for this library. I am now investigating other addresses within the network blocks that are blocked locally and globally so they can be modified. — madman 16:27, 17 July 2012 (UTC)
AnchorFree, Inc. has the following netblocks assigned to it: 64.55.144.0/22, 74.115.0.0/21, and 199.255.208.0/21. I'm going to try to contact both blocking administrators as the local block comment doesn't accord with the block, and I'd prefer the global block be refined rather than remove it locally. — madman 16:37, 17 July 2012 (UTC)
Hmm, I know that a nearby IP, 204.93.60.222, is definitely a Hotspot Shield proxy from AnchorFree because I tweaked around the program just then and managed to get that as one of the rotating IPs. After finding a confirmed IP, I go to the IP's WHOIS page. When you find one IP this program uses, it's often (if not always) part of a larger range that the company has purchased from a hosting service. According to WHOIS, 204.93.60.222 falls under the CIDR IP block of 204.93.60.0/24, which 204.93.60.20 is apart of. I scanned 204.93.60.20 and 204.93.60.222 with nmap and they both have about a dozen of the same port numbers open. While that doesn't necessarily prove it's an open proxy, the fact that about a dozen of same ports are open on both IPs seems a bit suspicious to me. Anyway, it's possible that the Hotspot Shield could be operating from a much narrower range within the /24, so I've granted the unblock. However, I'll be keeping a lookout on the IPs the Hotspot Shield gives. Spellcast (talk) 17:05, 20 July 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for your unblock and such a detailed explanation of your rationale! I will also keep an eye on contributions from this range; your points are well taken. Cheers! — madman 00:16, 22 July 2012 (UTC)

Reason: Suspicious edits

 Unlikely IP is an open proxy at this time. Looks like a FreeBSD box running as a firewall and router, forwarding some ports such as 3333 to hosts on the local network. It looks like there may have been a Squid proxy at port 3128 for some time but if so, that port is now closed. No administration necessary at this time; blocked due to meatpuppeting behavior. — madman 01:27, 22 July 2012 (UTC)

Not currently an open proxy Appears that IPs are both on dynamic ranges belonging to the same ISP from spain. Website login is for personal firewall software, which is perfectly consistent with a normal user rather than a proxy. Sailsbystars (talk) 16:15, 11 July 2012 (UTC)

Apparently an open proxy on port 80. UTRS ticket number 2526: "The IP address (212.118.224.156) I am connecting from is owned by Zscaler (http://www.zscaler.com) which is a company that provides a cloud-based web security product for businesses. Their proxy can only be used if your actual IP address is verified in their system and you have a paid subscription for the service, so I don't think it should be classed as open proxy?"--v/r - TP 19:17, 13 July 2012 (UTC)

It is still an anonymizer (which is blocked globally). In my practice, some block evaders are prepared to spend time and money on such routes (e.g. using non-free proxies), thus I would keep it blocked, but this is just my opinion. Materialscientist (talk) 01:38, 14 July 2012 (UTC)
As far as I can see, that is an open proxy, i.e. a proxy that anyone can use. The fact that you have to register and pay money to do so makes no difference that, as far as I can see, is in any way relevant in the terms of Wikipedia's open proxy policy. JamesBWatson (talk) 08:51, 18 July 2012 (UTC)

Reason: Spam-bot tripping edit filter repeatedly. This IP was blocked as a proxy back in October 2010, for two months. Why 2 months? Due to the edit-filter tripping, I have blocked for 72 hours but would like to have this re-checked as an open proxy due to the prior expired block. ~Amatulić (talk) 20:20, 13 July 2012 (UTC)

Reason: Previously blocked as a proxy in March 2011, currently blocked 1 week for block-evasion spamming. Please check if this is still an open proxy. I have also range-blocked the /20 range this IP address occupies for block-evasion spamming. You may want to check if the other 4 IP addresses listed in the report at MediaWiki talk:Spam-blacklist#latestmoviez.com are also open proxies, given that one of them has been in the past. ~Amatulić (talk) 20:27, 13 July 2012 (UTC)

I couldn't verify any of these IPs as proxies, though there is a solid evidence some of them were. I think this is just an abused range (where users setup proxies at will, but they don't last long) that needs to be kept under anonblock, not hardblock.

ProcseeBot blocked 187.122.136.167 on 9 June 2012 for 2 months (blocked proxy: port 3128).

An unblock request at User talk:Lguipontes refers to a ProcseeBot block on an unspecified IP address in the range 187.122.0.0/16, but it must be this one. The IP address certainly was running an open proxy: numerous web pages list it as a proxy, such as [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17]. However, I can find no evidence that the proxy is still operating.

Reason: Requested unblock.

Requesting unblock; claims it's a private proxy and not open. Daniel Case (talk) 04:13, 4 August 2012 (UTC)

This IP is blocked as part of the 66.90.64.0/18 range that contains many dozens of active open proxies (Googling "proxy 66.90." would give a rough idea). This IP itself is on a hosting server, i.e. can turn into an open proxy any time. Unblocking this range means opening a can of worms - better ask that editor to request an account. Materialscientist (talk) 04:33, 4 August 2012 (UTC)
That particular address is Not currently an open proxy; I will leave administration up to Materialscientist (talk · contribs) as he's more familiar with the range. I'm not sure that requesting an account would help, as it's a hard block? I think the contributor would have to request an account and then request IPBE for that account. — madman 20:39, 4 August 2012 (UTC)
Correct, and this is what I meant. It is a nuisance, but I think it is justified, given the potential danger related to this IP range and a single character of this request (there were more in the past, all declined, and some obviously came with bad intents [20]). Materialscientist (talk) 23:43, 4 August 2012 (UTC)

There was a zombie proxy on this IP in 2011, but not anymore; zzuuzz unblocked it here in Dec 2011, and I agree with that. The global block is likely set because Google lists the IP as potential proxy. Materialscientist (talk) 03:32, 8 August 2012 (UTC)

Unblock request via UTRS (#3023). The blocked editor notes that they are attempting to edit from the University of Geneva.--Jezebel'sPonyobons mots 19:49, 9 August 2012 (UTC) Reason: Requested unblock.

There surely was an exit of a tunnel proxy on this IP on 5 August, and maybe even 8 August according to hash.es (129.194.55.134:3128). All signs indicate this was an infection of a university PC, which was probably cleaned up, but maybe better leave it for a couple of days (entry or exit PC might be switched off right now, or entry has hopped). Materialscientist (talk) 22:44, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
Not currently an open proxy – Looks like a caching proxy for the university that may have accidentally been left open but is now closed. (It could have also been a machine behind the proxy, but I think misconfiguration is more likely.) As it's a Cisco network device, and not an end user's device, I think it's likely to stay closed, but I would also leave on hold a few days just to be sure. — madman 17:57, 10 August 2012 (UTC)

Reason: Requested unblock.

The proxy bot says this IP was an open-proxy exit from 41.56.217.123:3128 some time between 3 June 2010 and 30 July 2012. Has.es say it was an exit from 196.214.135.36:9000 until 27 July with a 66.8% availability. The block log [21] says the proxy was on and off for years. The IP is from African Network Information Center, which has a poor reputation in my practice (see also this). This suggests the problem might be with the provider. Nevertheless, the IP doesn't seem safe to unblock - just my opinion though. Materialscientist (talk) 07:12, 19 August 2012 (UTC)
Not currently an open proxy at the moment; up to reviewing admin whether to unblock or not. (I think I'd keep it blocked but change to anon. only, but then it expires soon anyway.) — madman 04:15, 21 August 2012 (UTC)

 Unlikely IP is an open proxy Hosting site, appears to currently belong to closed proxy services, although domain names make it appear to have been an open proxy in the past. I spot checked a few other IPs on the range... and they seem to give a similar tale (long-dead proxies, last active circa 2009). Given that we don't indef-block IPs anymore and that it's been almost 4 years, I would lean towards an unblock, with an eye towards re-blocking with a finite term if any new open proxies emerge. Sailsbystars (talk) 22:37, 23 August 2012 (UTC)
This is a hosting range, which hosted proxies like [22] (yes those are dead). A direct access to http://208.53.158.136 leads to a VPN tunnel site. Who would be editing from such an IP? (just a quick thought - haven't looked deeper into this). Materialscientist (talk) 22:39, 23 August 2012 (UTC)
I dunno, I'm tempted to sign up for one of those services right now since I'm connected to the internet via sketchy public wifi where everyone can sniff my packets. Which is why I use the secure server for editing WP, but not every website on the internet has that option.... This VPN is particularly encouraging since they don't offer a free trial, which is the problem with most VPN providers and wikipedia (free trial=open proxy).Sailsbystars (talk) 22:52, 23 August 2012 (UTC)
In general, being a legitimate anonymizer is not relevant to being free of charge. For example, I saw paid open-proxy IPs from newipnow editing WP. Materialscientist (talk) 23:00, 23 August 2012 (UTC)
Indeed, VPN services available to the general public (paid or unpaid) are considered an open proxy. — madman 00:27, 24 August 2012 (UTC)
The unblock request is unhelpful, as they generally are (it blames having had a virus in the past for being blocked). I'll happily tell them they can't edit from a VPN but I'd like to know what to do with the block. Is the whole range now VPNs? Even then, what should the indef be turned into? Secretlondon (talk) 23:42, 23 August 2012 (UTC)
No, the whole range is webhosts of one kind or another. The particular IP here is that of a VPN provider. Generally the practice on such ranges is to rangeblock for a few years when evil occurs. This range has been blocked for several years and it's evils are not apparent. I would lean towards an unblock, but bear in mind WP:ROPE and anon-block at the first hint of trouble. Sailsbystars (talk) 23:56, 23 August 2012 (UTC)
I generally lean toward anon. blocking hosting ranges and having users who wish to contribute request accounts. That said, if this IP is a VPN endpoint (I haven't checked), it quite simply may not be used to contribute to Wikipedia absent extraordinary circumstances that would merit an IPBE. — madman 00:27, 24 August 2012 (UTC)
What do we need to progress with this case? I think we are looking at changing the range block to an anon block of 2(?) years. We need to work out whether the IP address is a VPN exit node. If it is we proxy block? How can we work out whether it's a VPN exit node? Secretlondon (talk) 17:07, 25 August 2012 (UTC)
It's almost certainly a VPN exit node. Anon-block the range for 2 years would certainly be a reasonable course of action. There's just no standard procedure for a.) VPNs (at least previously I thought we didn't block them unless they were "open" in some way such as having a free trial, as they are not explicitly mentioned in the policy at WP:PROXY) or b.) indef-blocked ranges (we don't do them anymore, but there's no uniform standard for what to do with them now....). Sailsbystars (talk) 03:01, 26 August 2012 (UTC)

I have changed the block to a one-year {{Webhostblock}} and am closing. Account creation is currently blocked but users with existing accounts may edit and new accounts can be granted at account creators' discretion (preferably with a checkuser). Thanks, — madman 04:11, 19 September 2012 (UTC)

Reason: Requested unblock at User talk:Richiez. The user states that this is a large mobile operator with NAT, and not an open proxy.

  • I've changed the block to allow registered users, and new account creation, but still blocking anon contribs, so that fixes the current user. Same for 89.204.136.52 which is identical and done at the same time. I was mistaken it wasn't open, it appears, but there is still abuse coming from anon users on those two IPs, which this solution should fix.

Related to the AN/I case above, but this is very clearly an open proxy according to the geolocation data.[25][26] Seeing as most anonymous proxies used for abuse get blocked for a year or more, 31 hours seems a bit light. Or is it? Doc talk 05:06, 17 September 2012 (UTC) Reason: Suspicious edits

Not currently an open proxy according to technical evidence; unfortunately, the two sites to which you link aren't particularly reliable at identifying open proxies or keeping their data up to date. It's possible this is a particularly dynamic range. I'm not sure there's much more we can do at this time unless there's more abuse. — madman 22:58, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
Well, it's been blocked for a year by another admin, so either the technical evidence is off or the block extension was correct. Cheers :> Doc talk 23:03, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
I'll go ahead and close then as administration is complete. It's perfectly possible T. Canens may have found some evidence I couldn't; like CU, anything we can find's going to be imperfect and definitive statements are necessarily flawed. This is definitely an IP in a range with a history of abuse. Cheers! — madman 23:25, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
However some people do block things as proxies that are not. Secretlondon (talk) 23:27, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
Both of you know a ton more about this stuff than I do (I learn as I go), but I'm curious: why does this IP not have a country according to the two sites I listed? Other open proxies on this board list a country of origin (again, according to those sites), so why is this one listed as a completely anonymous, "nationless" proxy? Doc talk 23:34, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
The range is assigned to Cogent Communications, which services 34 countries. Unfortunately ISPs are not required to subdivide their ranges geographically/provide geographic information on all their ranges (as to be fair, this could be logistically impossible depending on their network infrastructure) so there's no source of authoritative information in that regard. — madman 23:39, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
That makes sense - thanks! Doc talk 23:45, 17 September 2012 (UTC)

Not currently an open proxy. It's an SSL VPN, but presumably restricted to employees only. Cheers, — madman 03:56, 20 September 2012 (UTC)

Reason: Requested unblock. UTRS #3401. User is in Syria and says they are not using a proxy service. Was blocked in March 2012 by procseebot with the message blocked proxy 91.144.16.107:80. Secretlondon (talk) 14:56, 2 September 2012 (UTC)

Inconclusive It's not a proxy as detailed in the block log. However, it is open on one of the standard proxy ports (8080). I can't get it to proxy, personally, but it's concerning enough that I would be hesitant to unblock. I'm a bit surprised that procseebot blocked it for a year... most procseebot blocks are only 3 months. Sailsbystars (talk) 12:59, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
Hmm, I cannot verify this... neither IP responds at all to requests from me on port 8080, nor any other common proxying ports. --Chris (talk) 14:56, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
Can I get a third opinion? Secretlondon (talk) 23:28, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
My results agree with Chris's and I'm going to call Not currently an open proxy on this one. It's possible Sailsbystar's result was an aberration. — madman 04:05, 19 September 2012 (UTC)
