Yep - same here. The Wanadoo porn-dialler spammers who are currently trying to hit my inbox approximately 150 times a day just seem to have a huge list of ntl addies no other spammers have. Wouldn't be at all surprised if it was some kind of an inside job.

Also wouldn't be surprised if their spam blizzrd was behind the latest collapse of ntlworld's mail servers. When are they going to work out that providers with no server side filtering are going to attract spam at an exponential rate as other providers get their acts together?
