| May 3, 2023 at 16:58 | comment | added | danak | When I worked at an e-publisher that tracked software companies, it was not unusual for domains of gone-companies to be hosting porn. Disgusting beyond belief photos. I don't know why these URLs were chosen or if the sites were just hacked. I had to take over sometimes to help employees close down the page quickly. | |

| May 3, 2023 at 3:04 | comment | added | Doktor J | Could you not publish one last new version of your freeware that no longer has that link/reference? Then renew the domain for one more year just to get that out there? Domain registration isn't expensive. | |
