http://dmoz.org/Regional/Caribbean/Aruba/Recreation_and_Sports/
http://www.depalmonline.com/ - takes you to an affiliate site for DePalm, with same packages/prices as their other site (as seen in the logo) www.arubaexperts.com Both sites are also on the same domain server.
http://www.arubaexperts.com/ is in turn listed in http://dmoz.org/Regional/Caribbean/Aruba/Travel_and_Tourism/Travel_Services/Travel_Agents/

the actually DePalm company is http://www.depalm.com/ - Information on the activities and services provided by this destination management company. Is now listed in:
http://dmoz.org/Regional/Caribbean/Aruba/Travel_and_Tourism/Travel_Services/Travel_Agents/
They are a destination management company but the bulk of their island business is actually island tours and activities.They are a tour operator and not a travel agent.

http://dmoz.org/Regional/Caribbean/Aruba/Travel_and_Tourism/Travel_Services/desc.html
Category description: Tour Operators- This category is for tour operators operating out of Aruba.

www.Aruba-Travel-Info.com description is listed as : "is an online travel magazine listing things to do and visit in Aruba", go to their page and here are the headings: Hotel Reservations | Cruise Reservations | Airline Reservations Vacation Reservations | Vacation Specials | Build a Vacation (not all of which are even for Aruba)- sounds like a travel agent no?

http://www.arubacellphonerental.com/ Rent a Cell- Aruba Cellular phone rental in Aruba
Description states: Lodging- Listing sites for all varieties of accommodations within the region

Re: Hijacks & Other Content Changes - Report Here ONLY

This site appears to no longer offer "Comprehensive information for both tourists and those interested in moving to and living in the state" - rather it seems to field a couple of links (one to a Mexican business not even in the Yucatan), and the rest, the barest minimal list of hotels, etc that one could garner off of one of the official Mexican Govt. Tourism sites, or a generic Mexico travel book.

That wasn't massive abuse, but I agree that's not the kind of content expected in a directory these days.

Re: Hijacks & Other Content Changes - Report Here

Cat litter taken out, and day spa closed down. Thanks for the information, and for the convenient format in which it was presented. (Others would-be ODP helpers, please take note: this is a most helpful technique.)

There was one listing, "Diagnosis and Treatment of Brain Tumors", that looked OK to me. What did I miss?
