Re: [PHP] Warning: OutsourcingRoom.com

2009-08-06 Thread Nate Benes
Hey guys,

Did some digging... looks like the host for http://outsourcingroom.com is
http://hosting.ua/.  Also, outsourcingroom looks to be owned by
http://www.cbsystematics.com.  The host for this company website is
http://parking.ru.  Hopefully this information can be of use to someone a
little more legal-eagle than myself.
