“microsoft considers gapingvoid site ‘suspicious’”
Seems I’m on Microsoft’s blacklist now. Hey Redmond, what’s the deal? Jeeze…
Heh.

I consider it a little suspicious too, but I come back daily anyway.
e-Bay links? Hugh — you selling up to pay for the move to Antibes?
You haven’t done enough anti-Apple posts or pimped your tamblet pc recently so they are concerned.
The problem is that anyone can report a site as suspicious. I had the same problem. Then you need to defend yourself to “clear your name”. Sigh…
Seems like your previous cartoon was prescient.
come on Hugh, we all know you’re suspicous
Don’t worry Hugh, they did it to me as well. Mind you, I did sort of expect them to do it to me!
I wondered and now I know… What a hoot!
Doesn’t report it as suspicious on my IE7Beta3 machine…
But you are suspicious
Shock news MS IE is shit.
Phishing! That’s it, from now on I’m only going to gapingvalid.com.
What Kenny Kerr said above is sadly true. See this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cLqvHK2CPB4
No … MS IE is great. Just look at all the cool things it does. It … OPENS NEW WINDOWS! No Tabs, ‘cos it’s Windows! And … it Alt+tabs automatically! ‘Cos you’re human and don’t know what window you want to stare at!
See, IE makes it goood. Right.
It’s obvious, you make people think! and that is NOT correct!!
Take it as a compliment. Anything that microsoft doesn’t like must be good.
