Looks like the shorters have been active again. A lot of effort devoted to scaring a few shareholders to sell. As has been pointed out before, most of us have already sold enough to cover our original investment, and are playing with house money. We aren't going to be selling on the basis of a few baseless posts, so obviously designed to scare would-be investors. These fellows are really amateurish in their posts, signaling their intention from the start. The charts tell all, and no matter what these shorters say, the stock behavior has been steady, and it appears to have held up very well in the mid 20's, after the recent rapid rise to the mid 30's. I expect higher prices in the next several weeks. The Asian internet play is underway, and it looks like Zsun is one of the main, serious players. Regards Dan

More Evidence of ZiaSun involvement in spamming, this time to promote Momentum Finance (aka as Mfinance). Now, I don't expect everyone to be able to decipher the following, unless you have some UNIX knowledge. Perhaps a patient third party would be kind enough to explain it to the newbies. Courtesy of some friends on USENET, here is evidence linking Momentum / Anthony Tobin / ZiaSun to the spamming of newsgroups with ads for mfinance. The typical spamvertisement is posted via imsbiz.com/hkt.net and looks like this: From: mf@pinmail.com Newsgroups: misc.invest.stocks Subject: Win $5,000 - Momentum Finance NNTP-Posting-Host: 202.84.175.165 Message-ID: <3623544a.0@news01.imsbiz.com> Path: news3.enter.net!newsserver.jvnc.net!newshub.northeast.verio.net!news + -peer.gip.net!news.gsl.net!gip.net!newsfeed.cwix.com!202.84.255.3! + news.hkt.net!news01.imsbiz.com!202.84.175.165 Remember this number... MOMENTUM FINANCE Global markets - Free financial data and news. PLUS the chance to win a $5,000 on-line stock trading account. mfinance.com Now, to find out the source of the spam, we need to find out who is 202.84.175.165 (This is called a Reverse DNS Lookup, for the newbies, and so FG and Lou can follow along) : Registrant: : Momentum Internet Inc.
