Hello Kevin

Thanks for contacting Spamhaus!

Looking into the malware's botnet trafic, it appears that it is using
your DNS server to resolve .bit domain names. So the easiest way to
prevent that the malware can communicate with it's botnet controller
(C&C) would be to create an ACL for the said botnet C&C domain
(nutsystem325z.bit) to prevent that it is being resolved through your
DNS server.

Please understand that we are unable to remove this listing unless the
documented abuse problem has been fully terminated.

If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
