Off-topic RDJ not working properly since DOS a few weeks back

Ok, I know this is sligtly off-topic, but has anyone else had problems with Rules_du_jour since the DDOS against sare and spamhaus a few weeks back?

It runs fine when run manually, but when it runs overnight automatically it fails to download at least one of the rulesets and then gets stuck as below...

***WARNING***: spamassassin --lint failed.
Rolling configuration files back, not restarting SpamAssassin.
Rollback command is:  mv -f /etc/mail/spamassassin/70_sare_evilnum0.cf /etc/mail/spamassassin/RulesDuJour/70_sare_evilnum0.cf.2; mv -f /etc/mail/spamassassin/RulesDuJour/70_sare_evilnum0.cf.20070708-0456 /etc/mail/spamassassin/70_sare_evilnum0.cf;

Lint output: [12337] warn: config: failed to parse line, skipping: <HTML><HEAD><META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="0.1">
[12337] warn: config: failed to parse line, skipping: <META HTTP-EQUIV="Pragma" CONTENT="no-cache">

[12337] warn: config: failed to parse line, skipping: </HEAD></HTML>
[12337] warn: lint: 4 issues detected, please rerun with debug enabled for more information

The really odd thing is that it always seems to get stuck on the first of the rule sets (was tripwire, now evilnumbers!)
