I worry about sending emails to people who are hackers, they like my art and they scare the crap out of me, so I leave them alone, and I hope that my agent does something, I send emails to established sites that know better and will remove it.

That is a crappy situation! This is what I found by googling the DNS:

DAI IP CHO HOSTING GAME

Hope it helps!

something has happened, because when I click on your link, mtkang, I get a 404 page not found error. I hope they have been shut down!

hi elvinstar, is that a way to find the site's host with all available contact information? i am able to find out this DAI IP CHO HOSTING GAME, but it links to another website that i am not sure where to get contact information.

is that a easy way to find out what is the site's host information? i wonder are every site's host is a legal company that will do anything to prevent stealing?

after a search in internet, i realise stolen contents even like blog contents are common to be republished without permission.. and there are website that let people download free vector from microstock, photos. There is nothing one can do to those website?

I guess most people are clueless of what to do..and many of it just got it away.
