Hi Charles
Why the panic? Because you have links to porn on your pages (in Dundee's
case 12 pages, all owned by the same person and all generated by Analog) and
now that you know this is the case, you should probably do something about
it - if not for legal reasons then to save embarrassment. Can you imagine
giving a training course and clicking on the icon to demonstrate a HTML
validation service, and then going to a porn site. One Scottish institution
had the link on a page which was about IT in schools - again, can you image
the outcry if that came out (do you have tabloid newspapers in Scotland -
excluding the Sun which is now a fan of the web).
BTW the link is too soft porn now. Who knows what it will be tomorrow?
