ISP Suspended

Greeting all,

I have to be honest with you on an event that happened about a month ago. Microsoft claimed one of my servers had an illegal license. While I have corrected the issue with Microsoft, Time Warner has suspended my internet connection for 90 days. This will take place on Nov. 6th. My lawyer is working to have the suspension uplifted as I just paid Microsoft, $8,000.00 (extortion money) for their penalty fees and a new license. Time Warner claims they are concerned that they don’t want to be held libel for allowing this illegal server on there network. So they decided to do the suspension. If my lawyer does not pull through by Nov.5th I am afraid I will not have internet service.

All the Websites are outsourced on other servers and my partner will be handling this. This is not the problem; my problem is I can no longer access the internet. I am sitting here this AM having to make a decision. Do I try to maintain this business without internet for 90 days or do I pack it in and sell my part of the business to my partner. This is a decision that I have to make. The Postman will be handling all the activities after Nov. 5th till my internet is back up.

Please take care and I hope to hear from you all after this situation is resolved.

Well the decision is final. I am losing my internet Nov 5th for 90 days. This kinda sucks as this is my life and how I make money. My lawyer is really working hard to keep me on but after the phone call I just got at 8:45 this morning. I think it's going to happen. I have been ordered to shut down all my system servers Nov.1st. Lucky all the forums and websites are outsourced. The order does not claim I have to shut down any Websites, Forums or my Laptop only my Servers and Desktop for the 90 days. Lawyer says he is appealing the decission this morning. I have just spent every dime I have including my 401K to fight battle but after today there is no more money to fight.

I am sorry that this had to happen. For once it is not my fault. I bought the Server from a reputible company who now claims the Server 2003 was never installed. How the fuck do they expect a person to buy a server without the operating system.

I want everyone to have a great holiday season. I will figure this out and will probally be taking my laptop to Starbucks to atleast get the NRR News Leter out. It will be late and I am sorry for this. I will have it done by Nov 15. The website is complete and I can just add the file direct from my Laptop.

Take care and I will keep everyone informed.

Love and Respect

Oh one more thing My company is not part of the No Rules Riders or their Websites. The Forum is Outsourced and WILL NOT GO DOWN.
