That's the thing Tom, you no longer know which website is legit and which is not. This is organized hacking at it's best, lol. They want you to download XoftSpy on that website, what if after it scans your computer it says "Your computer is about to commit Hara-kiri" we can fix this if you register our software and pay us $29.95... After installing you find it doesn't work and you may have downloaded a real virus. I am one of the suckers who paid $29.95 and spent hours removing it from my computer.

I would check with register.com to see who owns it and if you can contact them by phone. On the website itself, try to see if there is a phone number so you can talk to someone before purchasing. There is a constant war going on between software developers and hackers, at any point in time one of these groups has the upper hand. At this point in time I think the hackers are ahead.

However, I am sure there is someone honest out there who is trying to help. How to find that person is the question.

PS. The main point here is that it does not happen anywhere else but on Stock House, so I don't think it's in your computer.
