Jean Pierre, Ross is correct in this being a set-up of spam. Sometimes when we type in, by accident, webpages with the incorrect spelling or the use of a character in which you did, it will show up as either a page like what your presented here or even so a domain in which you may purchase...this is merely the big world of technology in which I am just a small figure out there . Our board is powered by V-bulletin.

It is appreciated that you presented this to the OB, that's what we like to hear if there are any problems or confusions with entering, hangin' or leaving the OB. Thank you....

I am sure someone else will enlighten you on what happened, my techno verbage is a bit to be desired

Cheryl, I heard a term a while back that you might appreciate? Maybe you are "technologically agnostic"?

This is just a page that takes you to cpanel on the host machine. Doesn't matter if you enter | (pipe) or anything else. If you go to blah.orchidboard.com you'll get to cpanel because subdomain "blah" does not exist so it goes to the default page, which is the cpanel and apache. I'll see if I can put in a default page there for those of you that like to type pipe's in front of the address, hehe
