Softlayer one of the most hostile ISPs in terms of spam and malwares is now a part of IBM. Because of their lax regulations a huge number of cyber criminals used their services to send relentless spam and host malicious sites. _______________________________________________ I would be cautious as to what takes place in due course of time as IBM has a lot to do before it can call it a day.

The company has been acquired by IBM and the bad management must be replaced in due course, but as of August 2015 it is still "The World's Worst Spam Support ISP" according to ***** If you are considering hosting with them, you may want to challenge them on this. Also note that some networks may block softlayer IP addresses to prevent malware infection.

Could be a good company but they don't seem to respond to abuse reports neither take any action to stop it.

Regularly hosts spammers and scammers. Does not seem to do anything about them via spamcop reports. Also large volumes of spam with links to malware hosted on GoogleDrive are coming from softlayer , its getting to the point where email that domain may become blocked by default. The fact that Symantec trusts this domain shows how low symantec have sunk. ***** ***** NEVER trust a spammer NEVER buy from spammers (High fraud risks) NEVER visit spammed web sites (High malware risks)

SPAM via ***** (dromaland.com , dromadaire-newsletter.fr, braderie-mail.com, ...) , ***** Again a f*cking French spammer polluter website of sh*t, apparently, a country full of corrupt, spammers, stammer theoretical laws giving rights to opt-in (because corrupt) and insecurity. Apparently this is the feast of site creations including fake sites for spam, scams, advertising to sell us their crap and pollute the planet with electric resources wasted! F*cking capitalism! F*ck OVH and other spamer's hosts! And address of sh*t again! One day, the number of Internet domains used for SPAM extensively exceed the number of useful internet domains, like the number of SPAM received which represents 90% of e-mails that are received in the world! The capitalists are real r*tten! Proof here: ***** /!\ A VERY IMPORTANT TIP /!\ : DON'T CLICK ON ANYLINK IN A SPAM, INCLUDING THE UNSUSCRIBE LINK, BECAUSE YOU WOULD CONFIRM THAT YOUR E-MAIL ADDRESS IS VALID, TO BETTER SPAMMING YOU, this r*ttenness is very contagious with illegal resale data, unofficially legal in corrupt countries, including France! ------------------------------------------------------------------ Encore un p*tain de site Français spammeur pollueur de m*rde, apparemment un pays bourré de corrompus, spammeurs, de lois passoires donnant des droits théoriques d'opt-in (car corrompu) et d'insécurité. Apparemment c'est la fête des créations de site y compris des faux sites pour du spam, des arnaques, de la publicité pour nous vendre leur merde et polluer la planète avec des ressources électriques gaspillés! P*tain de capitalisme! P*tain d'OVH et d'autres hébergeurs de spams! Et une adresse de m*rde de plus! Un jour, le nombres de domaines internet servant à du SPAM dépassera largement le nombre de domaines internet utiles, à l'instar du nombre de SPAM reçus qui représente 90% des e-mails qui sont reçus dans le monde! Les capitalistes sont de véritables p*urris! La preuve ici: ***** /!\ UN CONSEIL TRÈS IMPORTANT /!\ : NE CLIQUEZ JAMAIS SUR N'IMPORTE QUEL LIENS DANS UN SPAM, Y COMPRIS LE LIEN DE DÉSABONNEMENT, VOUS NE FERAIS QUE CONFIRMER QUE VOTRE ADRESSE E-MAIL EST VALIDE, POUR MIEUX VOUS SPAMMER, cette p*urriture est très contagieuse avec la revente illégale des données, officieusement légale dans des pays corrompus, incluant la France!

Ne prends pas en compte les plaintes pour SPAM. (3eme SPAM en moins d'une semaine sans même un mail de confirmation).

Considering the amount of support for phishing, malware and spamming that I have traced back to this ISP, I must consider this a hostile ISP. They actively support criminal activity.
