To my big surprise, I recieved this mail from civics@geocities.com

I had the same message from them back in November relating to a dead page I
once posted. I had a traffic monitor on the page, it indicted that it had
had a total of 442 hits since I uploaded it:
http://extremetracking.com/open;sum?login=legomove

It had had six hits in the 6 months up to the e-mail, and only 2 since.

I did not reply & the page is still there.

" Your web site, http://www.geocities.com/simlego

Since I hardly ever upload anything to that page anymore, I don't understand
its sudden popularity. I thought that those of you who like my scans have
grabbed them a long time ago. And I doubt that my Inliner (179 kb) is that
popular either, as there have been other inliners available for ages.

...or is it just a new way for yahoo/geocities to make more money?


Does anybody have a clue?
