Thanks for the many (many many) emails you have sent to us to fix this
problem.

Two things though:
a) We are a South African company, and a quick check on a South African
search engine (http://www.ananzi.co.za) reveals that your site can not
be found on our local search engine. We arenot experts at all in this field but
if you are interested, let me know and ill try to get you listed.

b) A quick check reveals that your domain is zone transferable and a
cursory look shows that both your primary and secondary DNS servers live
on the same physical network. This is not quite best practice. Our
company is specialized in security assessments, we can show you how to
truly protect your website.

I would prefer you dont call me, but you could email instead and lets
work on getting your security issues resolved!!

PS. i checked, and it appears possible (though unusual) to make use of
exclamation and punctuation marks one at a time.
