Title: Inkjet Express

Title: NationalToners.com

Title: Outa Ink
URL: http://www.outaink.com
Problem: 'www.outaink.com Not Available'

That's it for now, Pandaink.com trapped me on their site and I lost the page I was working on (had all of the sites I had visited marked) so I have to start all over. Man I don't like sites that trap you there...

Re: Hijacks & Other Content Changes - Report Here ONLY

Look at you, having editor problems and not even an editor...

Re: Hijacks & Other Content Changes - Report Here

65613 is done, and thank you! Much appreciated.

I left akadinnerware.com listed because it has some products of its own and the page it's an entry for isn't available. I delisted afrocentricdinnerware.com but if it comes back we'll want to reconsider which one to list.
