Does anyone know how to shut down offensive web sites when web hosts wont do it? This guy attacks individuals, countries, has race issues, posts personal details and photos. about people etc. His Web hosts in Holland wont remove him because..."He's doing nothing wrong under Dutch law" !!! He has well over a hundred pages out there. Seems that everyone in the western world is a target for him. Can his site be 'dealt with' ?? This question is solely about taking steps to deal with an individual who has gone way beyond using just words and has crossed the line, where he has no respect for other peoples basic human rights and genuinely believes that his way, is the only way, no matter what it takes. Oddly enough, he is totally dependant on the very culture, technology etc. that he is so against! Haven't we seen this before?!! Does anyone here seriously defend someone who uses emotional terrorism and threats of physical violence, amongst other methods, to get what they want, supposedly for the betterment of every one else? I come from the 'school of hard knocks UK' and my experience is that it's more difficult to stand up and defend your own society.

Any Good Web Hosts Like Mac? Are there any good web site hosts out there that have a free-form website 'template' like Mac does (drag, drop, and resize ect.), but offer a domain name such as www.kfwine.com instead of www.mac.com/kfwine? Also, one that will include the website in Google searches, ect. A good answer with a link to a website from that host (or other sample) or a free trial will earn a thumbs up and best answer (11 pts) Of course, I wouldn't expect it to be free. That's probably why iWeb doesn't offer domain names. I just need something that can make attractive web pages and is user-friendly. One problem I'm having is that when I upload my own picture for a logo, the quality turns out really low - and this is on a host that I pay for. It's like MySpace, I can only edit colors and choose pre-made templates. This is for my parents' business, so I want it to be something that would grab a customer's attention and make them want to visit again. By the way, right now I'm using Network Solutions.
