The Site admin got back to me right away.... I jumped the gun slightly.. Anyways, a spammer had signed into that site previously with the same username and posted lots of crap - when I signed up, those posts came back online hence my panic.... Should be fine now - interesting site ;) Paul -----Original Message----- From: owner-nanog@merit.edu [mailto:owner-nanog@merit.edu] On Behalf Of Paul Stewart Sent: Monday, February 25, 2008 11:48 AM To: nanog@lo-4.com; nanog@merit.edu Cc: Paul Ferguson Subject: RE: YouTube IP Hijacking DO NOT sign up at that site until the site admin fixes a major issue - I thought it looked interesting but now I'm in an embarrassing situation. I signed up like anyone would do and the moment I validated my email address, postings started to showup under my account that are weeks old - these postings are of "sexual nature" ... lovely.... Not impressed to say the least.... emailed the site admin asking something be done...
