I get the feeling, to a certain extent, that there is a certain kind of mob mentality such that since we *can* do it, and they are a little guy, that we should shut them down no matter what. So despite what seems their now honest attempts to clean up, some are bent on still shutting them down (to make an example out of them?). Not that it's not unreasonable 'punishment' for all years of abuse that was inflicted on Internet users, but if this is who "we" are, then I'm a little disappointed.

I'm sorry, but your efforts to get the last word here are in vain. Cheers, - - ferg p.s. And by the way, whether the badness has actually been purged from Atrivo/Intercage's IP address space remains to be seen -- previous similar claims have all been false. Time will tell -- may eyes are watching. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP Desktop 9.6.3 (Build 3017) wj8DBQFI2v5Oq1pz9mNUZTMRAhaHAJ46OFbpGDap70pAEHlzLwOCiJpRhgCfRgM1 4Riwi5G0vWvtZZWyYt9mgKw= =4BP6 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- "Fergie", a.k.a.
