Open Wingate Proxy Server List

servers which have open wingates which are being abused, are listed here.

Currently testing for these on the telnet port, 23.

Consists of collections of IP addressed networks, which are being abused by spammers, due to them running an insecure (open) wingate server.

WinGate is a personal type of 'internet gateway sharing' software packages.

Spammers use open wingates to hide their identity, and then usually abuse another open relay server, to further confuse and hide their identities.

The use of an open wingate can entirely hide the identity and origin of spammers, so they are a very bad thing indeed.

There are currently very few tools around for testing for these open proxies, so the numbers here will be small, until those tools are developed further.
