Hi,
Just to ease peoples concerns, the patent has nothing to do with
blackholing. A brief description of the way it works can be found here:
http://www.scamslam.com/ScamSlam/whatis.shtml
We have not disclosed the site address to the "public" at this stage, the
text of the site is only draft form for the purposes of editing and needs
to be "polished". Perhaps the article wasn't as articulate in conveying
this, but I'm sure you appreciate journalists sometimes don't get it right :)
Kind Regards
Bevan Slattery
