  25 July 2009

 I have changed from the use of adding sites to a text format to that of html pages broken down by Alpha - numerical listings for the sites,  0-9 and A thru Z.

 I have also added a new sites added and sites that I update with new records in the Master sites listings spreadsheets which will be kept until the end of 2009 at which time I will add to all the individual pages.
 

 My sites listings are sites that have met one of my listing criteria and is for historical research and not meant to be a type of blocking list, so all sites I list per the whois record date at the time the site met my critical will remain listed for historical reference similar to that of a used car history one can get a fax to see prior to purchasing a used car.
 

 
The first class is what I call the BlackWebNetwork (BWN) class and its spreadsheet is:

About the Sites Classification System (SCS)

The sites classification system (SCS) is a taxonomy hierarchical classification system along the lines of how scientists classify plants and animals.  I created it in order to be able to classify sites according to the groups who are known to control the sites.

The first and highest level in the SCS is the Class which I define as all sites that is alike in a similar way.  Currently there are two classes, the BlackWebNetwork class and the ScareWare Marketing class.

The BlackWebNetwork class is the ../siteslists/BlackWebNetworkSites.xls and the ScareWare Marketing class is the ../siteslists/ScareWareMarketingSites.xls.
    
The SCS levels are as follows:
 
1. Class: All sites that are alike in a similar way
 
2. Subclass: All sites that share a common characteristic not shared by all sites in a Class.
 
3. Order: All sites that chare a common characteristic not shared by all sites in a Subclass.
 
4. Family: All sites that share a common characteristic not shared by all sites in an Order
 
5. Group: All sites that share a common characteristic not shared by all in a Family
 
6. SRGP (SubGroup): Sites that share a unique characteristic not shared by all in a Class, Subclass, Order, Family, or Group.
 
Since 2003, when I first began listing sites, I had used criteria in order to determine if I listed a site or not.  As of 2006 when I began the creation of my sites Classification System, I also created two sets of criteria I use in helping determine if I list a site or not.
 

Sites Listing Criteria
  The following is the two criteria I use and which can change at any time without notice
Criteria 1:
Any site directly or indirectly associated with the creation, distribution, and or promotion of any type of electronic form of vulnerability and or malware as defined by the legitimate security community that infects hardware and or software will be immediately listed in the BlackWebNetwork class.
 
Criteria 2:
Any site directly or indirectly associated with the creation, distribution, and or promotion of any form of file, software, or electronic communication for the sole purpose of using scare tactic advertising to advertise and or sell any security product and or service will be immediately listing in the ScareWare Marketing Class.
 
All sites listed in my spreadsheets and text files listings are for historical reference and not meant as a list for blocking of sites, as there are groups in the security community that use my lists for their sites blocking.  My listings are for historical reference of sites that at the time of listing per the whois date that had met tone of my two criteria. 
 

Contact Information
Over the years, I have had some who have tried to email me about sites.  Due to the spam bots that search web sites for email addresses, I never gave an email address for site inquiries
 
The following below is the email address to use for inquiries.
