Re: Dead Links- Report Here ONLY

 

Thanks for the report on the communism dead links but giving the url of the site really does not help us find those links in the category. It would be much easier for us if you also included the title of the site so we could easily find the listing.

Re: Dead Links- Report Here ONLY

 

People, PLEASE give the site title -- given that, we can look up the URL! Given the URL and no title, we have to mouse-over every link.

Commies and their safe houses both blown away.

 

Thanks again, and I know you're trying to be helpful by giving the URL, but the category name/site title combo saves us just a bit more time.

[sorry for the repetition: not meaning to rub it in--I responded before seeing thehelper's comment, but after spending several minutes doing the dastardly deeds on the dead URLs.]

Re: Dead Links- Report Here ONLY

 

The following site has closed down:

 

URL:

http://www.bookshop.co.uk/

 

TITLE:

Internet Bookshop

 

Category:

http://dmoz.org/Regional/Europe/United_Kingdom/Business_and_Economy/Shopping/Publications/Books/

 

 

Now just redirects to the following URL of a site which is listed elsewhere at DMOZ:

http://www.whsmith.co.uk/whs/go.asp?Menu=Books&pagedef=/books/home/ibs.htm

 

I reported this several months ago, but it's still there.

 

Merry Xmas to everyone :)

Re: Hijacks & Other Content Changes - Report Here ONLY

 

Following sites are used to promote porn content:

http://tibet.lexico.cz/ listed as "Tibet a životní prostředí" in http://dmoz.org/World/Czech/Veda/Zivotni_prostredi/ - links to porn sites are on the bottom of the page with white font on white background, but if you don't use on page setup you will see them clearly (or just press Ctrl+A to see them)

Other sites using the same system:

http://jahody.lexico.cz/ listed as "Jahody od A do Z" in http://dmoz.org/World/Czech/Domov/Zahrada/

http://tomel.lexico.cz/ listed as "Tomel - Diospyros kaki" in http://dmoz.org/World/Czech/Domov/Zahrada/

http://adopce.host.sk/ listed as "Náhradní rodinná péče" in http://dmoz.org/World/Czech/Domov/Rodina/

http://www.citrusy.cz/ listed as "Citrusy" in http://dmoz.org/World/Czech/Domov/Zahrada/

http://www.volny.cz/mufas/dieta/ listed as "Zdravá dieta" in http://dmoz.org/World/Czech/Zdravi/Hubnut%ED/

http://trillian.host.sk/ listed as "Skiny pro Trillian" in http://dmoz.org/World/Czech/Pocitace/Software/Komunikace/

http://www.lexico.cz/vbs-script/ listed as "Visual Basic Script" in http://dmoz.org/World/Czech/Pocitace/Programovani/

 

Should be enough for now, seem to be all from one guy imho.

Re: Dead link

 

If you could use the format you see two posts above yours it would be a really big help.

 

With some searching, I was able to find and remove everything but the tripod.lycos.de page. Thank you!

 

Now, if you could tell us the category, title and url (not the url of the 404 page) for that one I didn't find ...

Re: Hijacks & Other Content Changes - Report Here

 

Arubalisa, could I ask you to give us dmoz categories for these rather than Google directory categories? There are two reasons for this request. First, to check these out knowing only the Google category we'd have to manually convert each one to the corresponding dmoz category. Second, some of them may already have been fixed in dmoz since Google last took an update.

 

Teamfocus, done and thanks. Much appreciated.

Hosted_Components_and_Services

 

In http://dmoz.org/Computers/Internet/Web_Design_and_Development/Hosted_Components_and_Services/ ,

 

AlphaSheep - password protected page

 

ByDesignWebSights - seems to be a Web hosting company rather than components and services

 

Everyone.net - email hosting only, no more message boards or search engines

 

HTTP After Burner - appears to be a load balancing service like Akamai

 

iDigMedia - this doesn't appear to be a hosted service; a customer sends in a disk with graphic images and this company sets up an online storefront for him

 

Info2Web - unknown host

 

Numion's SiteSpeed - This website offers a PHP script to download

 

Webmaster Tools Central - directory of CGI scripts, not remotely hosted

 

whatUseek - search engine that provides a site search service

 

YourCGI.com - Page says they'll be back in a few weeks.

brmehlman has dealt with #59246 above. Thanks.

Looks like he has gone through #59285 as well.

Someone's working on #59481.
