Hi WiW,

Thanks for the link.
And thanks to Richard Clayton for writing the comprehensive article.

In my opinion, this kind of fooling around at the ISP is completely
criminal.
Temporarely changing targetserver (with some DNS-trick, or something) to
get some freaking criminal set. Pfft...

I know my ISP (XS4ALL, the Netherlands) never cooperates with such
criminals, but you get what you pay for: Other pricefighter ISP might
cooperate, selling out their customers.
Bah.
