Sorry, no I meant dictate2us: stuartfoster@dictate2us.com although the domain name is registered to a Solicitor gsl@glplaw.com and adminstered by mail@timmyleigh.com who also seems to work out of the same Solicitor’s offices.
You’d think they’d know the rules…
And another regular spammer: Peyter [sic] Clayton, according to his utterly crap website.
Another spammer. info@databureau.co.uk main@databureau.co.uk and sbarbour@databureau.co.uk
…is that they seem to live in some sort of Utopia where spam simply doesn’t exist. Why do I suggest that?
Take a look at their latest product: Google Friend Connect. It’s an application/suite of apps. that can easily add social networking features to an otherwise static website and requires little programming or coding knowledge by the website owner. There’s a video that explains how it works.
All your friends and other members of the public need is a Google Account to be able to interact with your website. And therein lies the problem.
I run a number of message boards and blogs and have noticed more and more of the spam signups/user registrations are coming from confirmed Gmail addresses, i.e. spammers with fire and forget Google accounts. So imagine your spangly new website features. How long before they would be full of comment spams linking to online casinos and drugstores? About as long as it would take for Google to find your site and include it in Google searches, I’d bet.
Such a pity because if that Utopia were to exist, it’d be a fabulous thing.
jilly@mail.win4now.co.uk or help@win4now.co.uk or sales@win4now.co.uk who, along with owners info@dmri.co.uk sales@dmri.co.uk sales@carsource.co.uk sales@vansunited.co.uk, claim to be members of the Spammers Association, sorry the Direct Marketing Association. They used complaints@communicatorcorp.com or info@communicatorcorp.com to send the Spam out for them, probably because they too are members of the DMA.
Well WordPress 2.5 has been released so I spent some time over the weekend updating 21 WordPress sites (and at the same time I updated another 6 Gallery installations).
WordPress 2.5 is very nice with a much better interface. Its built-in gallery/multiple file uploader is great – providing you use the latest versions of Firefox/Flash, it seems, as this doesn’t seem to work on some of my browser/platform configurations here).
Automatic plug-in updating is a nice touch too.
It’s also much, much better to be able to ‘upload’ images from a URL rather than coding by hand for this. All it needs now is built-in support for embedding YouTube videos and they’ll be there.
[edited to add]
The IE7/PC issue is fixed with the very latest Flash version and some patching from the WordPress Trac
I’ve mentioned before that I run a YouTube Channel to support my adult website. The stats. for the channel are impressive (to me anyway) with 1.4 million video views, but have you ever wondered where those viewers are coming from and how popular your videos are in relation to specific geographic regions?
Well that’s the sort of information you can now get from YouTube Insight. It’s all explained here in the Official Google Blog entry.
Now all we need are traffic sources and we’ll be there…
Don’t you just hate people who sign up for a paid listing service on a website you run – £25+VAT pa – and then when you finally get around to billing them for just one year (nearly four years later), these wankers try to claim that we never told them it was chargeable.
Now it gets worse when they are supposedly IT and computer consultants who claims to be able to – let’s say – work with your PC and Assist Online maybe and they forget there’s such a thing as the Internet Archive Wayback Machine which shows clearly that the site has always plainly stated it’s chargeable.
Never let the facts get in the way of an argument, eh?
Oh how I hate these spamming cunts!
Feel free to contact them at any of these (almost certainly bogus) fire and forget e-mail addresses:

I love the way they send spam and use Romanian servers for their shite, but on their own web shite they try to take anti-spam measures! Pity also that Fasthosts seem content to send out all the spam for these cunts.
Well Sunday was interesting, wasn’t it children?
I wanted to search YouTube to see if a particular video clip was on there – the “Jim’ll Fix It” rollercoaster cub-scouts – and found that YouTube was offline for a good couple of hours.
It now appears that the cause of the problem was Pakistan’s order to block users from visiting YouTube.
Apparently:
“A leading net professional told BBC News: ‘This was probably a simple mistake by an engineer at Pakistan Telecom. There’s nothing to suggest this was malicious.’”
I see.
So what they’re saying is that some witless fecktard in one telecom company in one country can take down a massive online entity like YouTube/Google by mistake?
Well if that’s the case, I expect it won’t be too long before fundamentalists (always with the accent on “mental”) start taking down websites all over the world, just because it appears to be so easy to do so!
