Outlook It Site

Hello everyone.

Something very fishy is going on.

I have been made aware that I have posted on the site below.
http://www.outlook-it.com/

The posting has my 'style' but I have no recollection of it. Also, the
English is atrocious and I know that this posting is not genuine.

Other postings are similar.

I would say that the questions have been generated by a program that copies
and pastes or sth and that has taken messages from this group.

The site itself looks like a standard php site but lots of functions are
missing such as 'reply' so it can't function as a site like this normally
would.

A have also apparently published a second article at the following address

http://www.alegsa.com.ar/Visitas/i64... %20itself.php

It is a mishmash of previous articles taken from at least two Microsoft
groups and even uses my pseudonym

Has anybody else had their identity used in this way and what is the purpose
of it?

Could the MVP for this group possibly take a look at these sites as there is
clearly a connection but I can't understand what such a site could hope to
gain except that it is going to complicate things for search engines in the
future.

Thanks in advance

Dave Neve

It appears that messages are being copied to that site in order to give its
forums validity. The Search is disabled but I can see a post from an MVP
there that certainly hasn't been given in that forum. It's a copy of a News
post.
While some sites archive posts this one seems an attempt to make it appear
genuine.

Hi

I'd say that it is a site designed to sabotage 'search motors'
I have to do searches every day and this morning I had more false leads than
correct ones.
I have asked Google what they think of it.
Thanks for looking at it anyway.

Dave Neve (the real one , honestly)
