Cornell's abuse and security contacts are published in various  
places.  abuse at cornell.edu and security at cornell.edu are both actively  
monitored.  Since we, like many other higher ed institutions, are  
very decentralized, it's hard to mandate that folks put abuse  
contacts on each website.  Many schools do monitor their abuse@ and  
security@ email addresses, though, so sending info to those addresses  
is usually a safe bet.

Thank you for the heads-up.  We'll have those spam pages taken down  
asap.

Thanks.

-Dan
