You've been scammed. Try to block the money transfer ASAP with your bank, credit card company or whatever.

You will find that site on the list compiled on this following page (24th from bottom of 1st list!): http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...879#post119879

Did you tell VISA it was a scam? You might find more hints on the earlier pages of the links I've given you.

(whoops I said 11th from bottom but it's 24th!)

I agree but LW is open source so it's not copyright/patented. It's difficult but to show they have no agreement whatsoever to deal with LW's software as an agent & take money for it. It's like those scalpers selling tickets outside of a football grand final or music concert.
