Huh? www.ehotmail.com is nothing but a "parked" URL at DotRegistrar.com and
has no data collection capability. And why would any research be required
since there is a link to the owner of the URL?

Currently a parked domain. Maybe somebody already complained, maybe it was
never what you claim. I have no way to tell.

You could to. I found some information using Sam Spade. But I won't be
sending any complaints because I can't see anything wrong being done. Again,
maybe somebody else already did, leading to the domain being parked by the
registrar. They do that; pull the plug on abusive domains. I will not post
what I have found because I have no firsthand evidence of wrongdoing; it
would be a futile exercise, and the domain owner might be justified in
considering that act abusive.

Maybe once, but not now. All I get is a Dotregister page.

Unfortunately, this is a public news group, and anybody with access to the
group, either from their own provider's NNTP service, or through
msnews.microsoft.com, can gain access, read posts, and respond. AFAIK,
nobody from Hotmail, with the official capacity to act, monitors this group.
The administrators of the CDO system at the MSFT site probably don't have
any more connection to Hotmail than I have.

problem, really. Account information collection by fake sites (a.k.a.
"phishing") is a big problem to banks but the hotmail hoax doesn't surprise
me - people sometimes have information that help identity theft right in the
mailbox.
