I've got:
dnsbl.njabl.org
sbl.spamhaus.org
list.dsbl.org
bl.spamcop.net
relays.ordb.org
I read somewhere (google groups?) that osirusoft was under a DOS attack.
Here it is
http://groups.google.com/groups?q=osirusoft.com+down&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&scoring=d&selm=Pine.BSI.4.44.0308261130490.20594-100000%40malasada.lava.net&rnum=3
Seems they aren't the only ones. spews and dnsrbl were DOS'd also:
