Bots are rarely single purpose engines. If they have been detected doing
bad things, they will probably appear in multiple RBLs for multiple
reasons. If something is in multiple RBLs, even if it hasn't done the
particular badness you are looking for, its probably just a matter of
time.
Perhaps not surprising, some of the porn site vendors appear to have
the most sophisticated systems for detecting brute force/password sharing
attacks.
