      I have seen the pic in their page somewhere. If I remember right, at the Yahoo! mail login page :) Smitha Whenever I see an old lady slip and fall on a wet sidewalk, my first instinct is to laugh. But then I think, what if I was an ant, and she fell on me. Then it wouldn't seem quite so funny.

        Let me understand, you got this e-mail for an almost-free web hosting service in a spam, in the middle of the Herbal Viagra jungle, the non-accredited certificates, and the magic penis enlargement pills? And you find this too good to be true??? :omg: :omg: I see dumb people

            I haven't been shopping around for Web Hosting for a few years since I signed up with Gateway. I just wanted to make sure deals like this really don't exist. I did a trace and it is an obvious scam.

              Let me get this straight... you are thinking of actually USING a service that spammed you? Where are your principles, man?!! :-D Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

                      www.3-95.com[^] has been my host for about 1.5 years. I only had one long bit of downtime and that was when their former provider decided to move servers across the country. Service has been excellent, and the tech support is top notch. And for $3.95/mo. ($39.50/yr.) I can't find a much better deal that meets our needs.

But your new shoes are worn at the heels and your suntan does rapidly peel and your wise men don't know how it feels to be thick as a brick."
