Summary
Last Measure is a shock site created by the GNAA, a trolling organization. It uses Javascript to display shock images (Goatse, Meatspin, Lemon Party, etc), play looping audio of a man saying "HEY EVERYBODY I'M LOOKING AT GAY PORNO!", and spawn multiple moving browser windows. Pressing ctrl, alt, or delete will cause a javascript alert popup which may intercept task manager. It also tries to send "hey everybody I'm looking..." and a link to last measure to everyone on your contacts list in outlook, and it sends whatever is on your clipboard to the GNAA for exploitation. The official version doesn't, but some versions of last measure contain malware.
Most mirrors are wildcard hosts in order to further trick unsuspecting viewers, most notably *.on.nimp.org.
Origins
A prototype was originally developed to crash AIM clients. An early version was eventually developed, and was continuously updated for several years.
Current status
Links to "static.nimp.org" are blacklisted by most major browsers. However, naive internet users are still tricked into viewing it, despite many of its features no longer working.
In 2010, iframes were placed in the website in order to exploit a cross-protocol scripting vulnerability in the Firefox web browser. This allowed the GNAA to attack the Freenode IRC network.
Encyclopedia Dramatica has a soft spot for Last Measure.
