Re: A Windows Activation phishing attempt.

I reported the redirect attempt to cjb.net, hopefully they will take it down soon. I also did a dit of digging and found the site redirects to:

»www.crumblis.com/

This appears to be hosted by globat.com, I've also contacted them and asked for the site to be taken down.
