Seems Vladd has had a run in with his ISP, so they are playing hard ball with him and his site is presently unavailble
This is a double whammy as his address is the one that is dealing with the hashes for the database
Still keep collecting folks those hashes are very important, hold on to the files until he returns, which should be soon if I know him.
If you are able to email them, and it goes through please do so .
Hurry back Vladd
Vladd44 Site : Temporarily Unavailable.

If we need a webspace to link to for the hashes or any other stuff that want posting i got space on mine and have mysql/php running.
Just leave a post or email me kr012e6589@blueyonder.co.uk

its only the vladd44.com website thats down - the hash database site is still running fine
thats the default "no site has been uploaded to this account yet" page - so i thought vladd had broken something AGAIN
quicksilver: have you actually heard from him about it? (btw, i emailed you in relation to this if you havent checked your email yet)

I checked the mail earlier but nothing showed up, I,ve replied now.
The address for the hash site has not been announced KM, so folks dont know where it is yet, are you in a position to let us know ?
I thought Vladd was going to make an announcement about it first

Email should be working fine
They disabled the account bc AOhelL users complained that I had spammed them. And since they had complained, regardless of whether I had or not, They wanted me to pay $200 to be reinstated.
I politely told them to F*ck off.
They also offered to reactivate my account so I could get my files and database for $50, and I VERY politely told them that it was the first thing I did when they deactiveated the account. As of now, the tards still havent disabled my ftp access and my access to the forum database.
I have everything I need, and a new host, just give me, and dns servers a little time.
Emails should never have been interrupted, which is ironic, since it was spamming they accused me of.
Maybe I will use my other acct with them to send my 3rd email, but I think I will do it with a new location already in place and dns servers already sent to it.
One last F*ck you for them.
For the record, I can already document $288 dollars annually that I already received committments of people who were doing business with them, who will no longer do so. So they can keep the roughly $6 they ripped me off for, and after a few more thousand dollars, we can call it even.
I am very glad that I have continued to keep the webhosting at a different company than the one I purchase my domain names through. If I had bought my domain name through them, they could really have had me by the balls, and then I would have had to get personal .

lol, you are constantly spamming me - i get at least 50 emails a day from your forum telling me about new posts
(btw, perhaps it would be wise to set a lower TTL on your DNS entries? everyone else can move a site over within a matter of minutes )

Hmm, they dont sound very nice folks, sending out a notice to the forum
members is not spamming, I think its just another way for them to hive off a portion of the net for the "business" folk,
This also happened to an italian forum I am a member of they are unable to send any emails out, thats pure overkill.
I wonder when we are going to have to pay for email , as I see that, as the next stealth tax.

Who was the webhost?
Edit:
GoDaddy.com seems to be the answer.

vladd isn't very good at doing his research - 5 minutes on google would tell me all i needed to know to avoid godaddy... lol
i would be worried about the fact that his new choice of web host is on several blocklists though - and my immediate reaction to their home page is "unprofessional and hasn't got a clue" - i wonder how long until his next web host change... lol

Hmm... spam is becoming a serious problem. My e-mail accounts have been spoofed so many times that I can't even send mail to my own father now. Luckily, he's considering a change of provider so his current too-lazy-to-check-if-the-sender-is-authenticating-his-mail solution (Freeserve in the UK if anyone wants to know) can go boil their balls.

the best way to deal with spam is to have an anything@whatever address - so anything can go before the @ and you'll get the email, then use something different for everything you use the email address for - that way when you start getting spam not only do you know who gave your email addres out, but you can also block all email to that address and it will prevent the spam without effecting other emails
That system has worked well for me so far (its also interesting to find some of the so-called reputable companies that sell email addresses)

I'm glad you've had success with your system. I used to do that exact same thing, however, when the spoofers finally went 'big' with my domain name I found that my legitimate addresses were also being blocked as 'bad' by various ISPs world wide. The solution was to cancel the catch-all address. Why? When I had my catch-all address active, all a spoofer needed to do was use anyname@mydomain.org which proves nothing about where they got the address from. It only suggests they have imaginations and word-generating software. All the bounced replies from "address/mailbox does not exist" would happily trundle into my inbox and ISPs would believe they'd found an active spammer. Result: blocked. Great. When the catch-all was removed, the bounced mail rebounded again... back to the ISPs where the postmasters could list the offending sender (which looked like me) as inactive. Problem solved.KM wrote:the best way to deal with spam is to have an anything@whatever address - so anything can go before the @ and you'll get the email, then use something different for everything you use the email address for - that way when you start getting spam not only do you know who gave your email addres out, but you can also block all email to that address and it will prevent the spam without effecting other emails

I suggest you remove your catch-all address before it's too late. It gets your site all the wrong sort of attention.
