Now *that* is exactly what I tried to encourage you to do, Dustin!

In particular at Annex.com and Dogagent.com

Aumha.net? I'm unsure - but Robear Dyer *has* lied.

I can hope for nothing more than that someone *will* take an interest
and investigate. Most folk are too busy to do as I have done for well
over four years now. I've never professed to know much about computers
but I do have an ability to sense when things do not ring true.

I'm sure you are right but it seems that such checks and balances are
woefully inadequate. The bad guys are winning and cybercrime is still
escalating. You saw for yourself, with the recent Times Square incident,
that the terrorist threat is still with us. I'd bet next weeks pension
that at least a proportion of money stolen on the Internet is directed
to fund such activity. I don't like that.

Just like the Somali pirates, the Internet bad guys *must* be stopped.

FWIW

You have no need to encourage me to do what I would do naturally anyway.
What you asked me to do was get dirt on people you have a personal grudge
with; and I will not do that for you.

Your senses are in need of recalibration.

The sites you mention have been around for sometime; I'm sure if they
were upto no good, someone would have noticed it and been able to
demonstrate it to the security community; I am unaware of any of that
having taken place.

I disagree. They quickly caught your newly fake account at malwarebytes.
No sir, they are on the ball.

Dave, with all due respect, hell will freeze over before you stop a
single internet bad guy. I say this because you have no clue who are the
good or bad guys and your efforts of PI work are failing miserably.
