Here are some of the IP addresses I am seeing:

199.48.147.39
173.212.238.60
173.212.238.60
65.172.48.18
65.60.22.150
67.19.20.162
205.138.115.85
Where are you getting your list of know proxies ?

You are right that many affiliates are trying to use proxies & cc to do fake joins.

I know our programmer uses a proxy regularly to test our stuff as he is in eastern Europe & needs a US IP address for testing.
