MSN Blockades phpBB Searchers

Via eMail Battles.

The ISP thought he had wiped out the PayPal phisher. But the devil popped back up at another URL using the same exploit to control the victim's phpBB bulletin board system. That triggered a nasty battle between the ISP and his domain name registrar that shut him down for at least 18 hours.
