Ok, so the figures are public knowledge maybe, but the exact same wording?

"So if you are thinking of getting into the business, now is your chance. "

Thank you for bringing the issue forward to us.

This is general information about the hosting market that has been used many times over, and I imagine will continue to do so.

Obviously the company is blocked out so it will be hard for us to contact them, but once again thanks for bringing the issue forward

Wow, I did think *****(C*I*H*O*S*T) was a reputable company. A while ago I was thinking about signing up with them. What could they have done to be banned from the forum? I thought it was hard to get banned. :eek:

I hope is was too bad. I can't imagine if I signed up with a company with a bad record on WHT.

"Today the web hosting market is the fastest growing Internet sector in the world" is a pretty common sentance, so just because a web site uses it doesn't mean it's stolen. Though of course if the rest of the text is the same as well, it does.

Just saying that it in itself doesn't mean anything, unless other copy is taken as well.
