In my quest to expand the VBMedia empire, I stumbled across this rather innocent looking site:

http://domainsnow4u. com/

Though after looking at it, I left within ten seconds. Only to find that it had performed the following cardinal sins: -

(a.) Made itself my homepage without any notice.
(b.) Copied a link to the page to my desktop, again without notice.
(c.) Copied a link to my shortcuts Windows taskbar!
(d.) Added itself to my IE Favourites

Now that, to me, is spam!

[Added] Just broken the link as I refuse to give those cretins one ounce of extra link popularity.

That IS a shocker - almost as bad as if Yahoo start throwing gambling pop-ups at their visitors. ----- oh wait, they do that don't they. ;)

Hey Maz - nice pic! Seems like yesterday when people were telling me they weren't brave enough to use a photo avatar. But you and savvy are starting a new trend - who next?

Don't look at me. I would break too many monitors if I used a real pic.
