But he is still leeching, and still stealing reviews.

Getting this leecher site blacklisted is a good start but does not really help until the blacklists are really abundant.[/b]
Doesn't this mean that something will happen?
Or did I get it all wrong...?

Nothing happens fast on the beginning... so that one will take a while.

Thanks for the link explaining the Zips 'o' death Fifth Horesman -

"One example of a Zip of Death was the file "42.zip" which itself was 42 Kilobytes in size, but described a file 53,000 Terabytes in size."

Although I would be so incredibly angry if I ever received something like that, that sentence made me giggle

If mosw.com get lots of red reviews it will turn yellow. An example of this is Spyware Terminator. It's a really good anti-spyware but because of Crawler's past (which changed 2 years ago) 8 people voted "spyware, adware or viruses" and it got yellow (because the testing was green).

Nothing will happen to the site directly but anyone who has the plugin will get a bright yellow siteadvisor panel which warns them to use caution. If they are smart they would click on it to see site details and read why it is yellow/red. If they use a supported search engine the site will get a yellow exclamation mark or red cross next to the result and they can hover it to reveal why it is blacklisted. Quite useful when going to unknown websites. If Abandonia had a yellow or red mark I sure wouldn't feel safe being here. Luckily it's green :bleh:

Im gonna review it for site advisor.
Here's a link to review it at http://www.siteadvisor.com/sites/free-game...osw.com/summary
Edit: I think we need to wait for them to review it.

Sounds like a plan Win98, I'll head over that way too I guess.

The more the merrier

I just reviewed it... is it good?

I had trouble logging in after I registered. I found the logging in using the form on the summary page doesn't work so you have to log out and log in using the link on the top right hand corner.

Let's hope it gets reviewed soon because I just read that it can only change if an employee reviews it (not the automated bots) as well.
