Obfuscated or not?
Check this link - is it genuine?
<a href=http://www.yada.co.uk/out-28.html target=new>http://www.example.co.uk</a> If it is, why is it so configured? It doesn't look right to me... BB -- http://www.kruse.co.uk/internet-mark...l-business.htm http://www.kruse.co.uk/google-mountain.htm http://www.kruse.co.uk/seo-tips.htm |

But how can we check if it's genuine if we don't know the actual URLs in question? Denise |

In article <v0o8u2huqcrt7hk8kc0rlca139q76tp4i0@4ax.com>,

It doesn't look right to me... Where did you see the link? I get lots of phishing spams that display a legit-appearing URL (like to PayPal, or some bank.) But really links to some other URL set up by the scammer. Maybe the place where you saw this is shifting from an old domain to a new one? Even then, I would have made the visible link text as, "The Such-And-Such Site." I hardly ever make link text as a visible URL. -- Earn Money With Your Web Site http://www.WebSponsorZone.Net Web Site Advertising Directory |

So why isn't it configured <a href=http://www.example.co.uk target=new>http://www.example.co.uk</a> which would be the normal way of doing it?
