valuehost is, I think, just a Russian hosting reseller. Nevertheless I can't
see much good coming from there, so I'm going to temporarily block this one
and see what happens.

Awww. What's wrong with the SS1, other than being slow as dirt? :)
I have a Solbourne S4100/DX here that I need to get working. The problem
is that OS/MP is buggy as hell and it had a tendency to crash to the ROM>

I've owned were that flaky.
