#4101 - The site is no longer adding new content, however it is being maintained to provide access to its archive of past information and so is still a useful resource.

Artisands · Aug 19, 2008

#4101- is done. Thanks

@Callimachus - number sequence changed due to a moderated post approval. Your post re: #4101 is now referencing #4102.

Callimachus · Aug 20, 2008

AH ok. Thanks for the heads up. As the time threshold to edit a message has expired ...

#4102 - see #4103

Dead Link

The following DMOZ page:
http://search.dmoz.org/cgi-bin/search?search=space+stamps

contains an old URL of mine:
http://spacestamps.amhosting.com/

I've since bought a domain and moved the content there. It's been included in DMOZ, but the old URL above has become a landing page for my former hosting company.

Probably should be removed. TIA.

Need to have URL changed

The following categories have a dead link:

Top: Home: Homemaking: Christian
Top: Home: Family: Parenting: Mothers: Personal Pages

The dead link in both categories is:
The Common Sense Mom (http://mysite.verizon.net/resptioj/)

I have twice sent in an update to dmoz with the new URL, but it never got done. The new URL is:

http://home.comcast.net/~commonsensemom/blog/

How can I get these links changed? Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

http://www.geocities.com/navalvithalani/ (Naval Vithalani) bears no relation to the site description or category.

http://kshemendra.bravepages.com/ (Dr. Mikhail Mikhailov: Belarusian Vedic Center) generates numerous pop-ups (some with adult content) and a maze of ads, and the links point either to non-existent pages on the same domain or to variations of http://itved.com, all similarly loaded with pop-ups, redirects, more non-existent links, and no relevant content that I could find.

And one site (also listed in four other categories) has two listings with the same title in this one category: http://www.geocities.com/lamberdar/ (Subhash Sharma) and http://www.geocities.com/lamberdar/ramayana.html (Subhash C. Sharma).

Notes: Redirects to correct URL: http://www.glasforms.com
It appears correct company name is Glasforms Inc. (one word).

URL Is Infecting Visitors With A Trojan Horse

This site that your endorsing is upon visiting injecting a trojan horse into visitors browsers/computers.

Category: http://dmoz.org/Games/Video_Games/Multiplayer/Clans_and_Guilds/

Listing URL: http://www.wolfstuff.org

Sure my anti virus quicky identified the trojan and quarantined it, but many other visitors might not be quite so lucky.

After a little more probing i found this web site report from Norton (Symantec).

Norton Safe Web Site Report (www.wolfstuff.org)
