I received a spam which promoted a website but the problem was the URL has something like this http://2704935062/somestupid/pornpage.html It was not an IP address or domain, so the only way I could find out what it was was to plug this into my browser and then do a "netstat". The website is hosted on a Verio netblock and I complained to them. What exactly are these spammers doing? Did they convert a dotted-quad address into a decimal number? thanks -- Andrew
