I've been tailing logs for "()" as I've seen a fair amount of () { :fake; } - () picks up some other lines, but I'd rather see everything rather than 90%

One thing they didn't mention about the base64 of example.comShellShockSalt is that as per use with Spammers finding emails that get reported on anti-spam boards, those initiating the probes can watch for reports and extract the identifier to see who said what. Why they would be interested in this sort of information, I have no clue, but it would be of use.
