>You know, I was there and it was nothing like this.

[Update--the link was to a German blog titled "Boston Globe Horn Book Awards" filled with English words and sentences strung together in a way that occasionally made sense but more often were simply madly stream-of-consciousness insanity. Apparently now it takes you to another site. This is the kind of spamming I don't understand. I mean, the gold-farm people want your money but this didn't have anything like that.]

>Roger, your site has been taken over by a hacker.

I clicked on the link and got a message that "We are processing your request." Then I was redirected to a quiz. (about life insurance?) When I back arrowed from that, I was redirected to one of those pages that have multiple links, none of which are the one you want. This one: /www.lowpriceshopper.com

Yikes! -wendieO
