*jumps straight in*

Ok, I destegged the background image and found the word 'signals' in the top left hand corner which you can just about see normally anyway.

Edit: BIG FAT WARNING - I THINK THE FOLLOWING GAVE ME A VIRUS (could just be my crappy computer though)

If you then put this word after the url, you'll get redirected to http://php0h.com/blog/ which will then go to http://php1h.com/hostingblog/ ....

But I just keep on getting popups and general unsafe looking things and can't even look at it because it's too laggy.

Well, that's me baffled.

damn if that web hosting blog were a dude id wind up and kick him in the nuts.. that did nothing but piss me off with all those damn neverending pop-ups.. for those of you who didnt see the site, this is written below the poloroid pics:

"augh. ever since the buyout i've been more and more suspicious. maybe there is something to be weirded out about."

my guess is the first word was meant to say "laugh"? not sure how that fits though..


FIGURES: I had to go and click the site BEFORE your warning...lol.. virus scanning commencing..


EDIT: No viruses detected

Gaaaah. Sorry! I went back and made the edit after my computer started running slow. I scanned and found nothing so it might be paranoia on my behalf after all the popups and evilness and lack of ARG-type-ness at the blog.

Hmm.. just got an email from one "Stewart Hansen" (stew.hansSPLATgmail.com):

Quote:
i see you've visited my website. care to help?


I'll keep you updated on the next reply. I asked him what kind of help did he have in mind..


EDIT: 2nd Reply from Stewart Hansen:

Quote:
Helping me. I need a group of people to prove that they're watching me.

I told him I knew of a few people interested, and asked what sort of proof he needed.

EDIT: 3rd Reply from Stewart Hansen:

Quote:

Any strange goings-on.. if anyone begins to ask you questions that you don't have answers to after speaking to me..


On 9/30/07, michael <sm00thwun> wrote:
what do you consider proof? I already know a few people who have shown interest..


definitely....weird. I get the feeling like he isnt even really responding to my questions... i mean, "Helping me" and "Any strange goings-on".. just doesnt make sense.. heres my response:

Quote:
you mean people who want to help you, or....other people?

my response:

Ok. Thanks for the tip. Now, how can I go about helping you? Point me in the right direction and I, along with a few other people on our side, will do all we can to help.

Blogspot

OK. I'm in. Sent an email and got the same "find BS" reply. Has anyone been able to get onto the blog? I'm running Firefox and, I cant access it. The site just keeps trying to load. I have a feeling it has to do with Firefox blocking the pop ups.

oh by the way, the original link gets routed to that crazy web hosting blog insane pop-up page when anything is added to the end of the link, not just "Signals"...

Signals has to have something to do with this all.. has anyone told stewart we cant access that site?
