The odd thing is that these sites: http://www.worldnewslog.com http://www.saulem.com http://www.wr18.com http://www.teoras.com http://172.16.1.3:15871/cgi-bin/afterWorkOptions.cgi http://www.malixya.com http://www.jennifersblog.com http://www.mikesspot.com http://www.a-b-l-o-g.com no-longer work properly for me. They mostly give me the Apache test page. I could get to some of them yesterday and could see that their links list contained a number of :2082 references, which is what alerted me to a possible concerted action against CPANEL controlled sites. I've even tried on a dial up conection to ensure that I've got a different ip address and entered the URL's manually. It's all very peculiar. -- Keith Underdown (Managing Director) The Q Consultancy Ltd KALIDO Information Archtectures Specialists +44 7798 934782 www.qconsultancy.co.uk
