I got a complaint about this :
weird - I can't pull up Atom Films or Shockwave from any of my computers..
Homne or office.
Now, let's see - intervideomag.com is 209.246.228.72, which is assigned to redwire.net, which is part of Level 3. Atom Films.com is 63.251.52.76, which is assigned to AS 16974, Shockwave.com, which seems to get access from Internap.
