Ahh, but she did. The three random words do give euglug as a result. Indeed it is #40. This person or persons are involved with a google poisoning attempt. Look up anything to do with any of the top search terms and you'll be swamped with links to sites like freeringtones.com (which isn't free and has nothing to do with whatever you were probably looking for...) These people look for top n results for a given grouping of common search words (like "linux" and "training" for example) and try to get themselves linked. If they can fool ten sites out of the top 200, they have a good chance of showing up in the top results for a given search related to one of those words, and a higher chance of showing up in a search for both. That's how these slimeballs operate. _______________________________________________ EuG-LUG mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.efn.org/cgi-bin/listinfo/eug-lug
