well you could start by emailing the webmaster if your unsure what their email address is try the following receipients.\n\nwebmaster@domain.com, info@domain.com, root@domain.com, abuse@domain.com, contact@domain.com\n\nthese are the most common try adding these to the reciepient line and remember to be kind and courteous and explain what you find offensive or wrong with the site.\n\nI have hundreds of " visitors " to my websites a day and I have not had one complaint in 2 years.\n\nSo your very rare , I wish more people would comment about my sites.

You need a good local attorney, not a bunch of "advice" from websites.\n\nIn your situation, only competent legal advice is going to be of any benefit and you only can get that directly from an attorney who knows the facts in your individual situation.  No website on the planet can do that for you.

I suggest www.netfirms.com . They offer all the tools you'll need, and they are very cheap, about 10 bucks a month. Very good service, and no downtime. They offer web authering tools, shopping carts, data bases, and plenty of webspace. I've used them for 5 years, and I've never had any problems.

idepends what language you're using - depending on how secure you want it, you could put the file in question on a page with an arbitrary name (say "mywebsite.com/gkhkfgksn.html" that is only accessed via an html form which asks users to eneter their email and then use java or php or whatever to validate the form data. (simple validating stuff you should be able to find anywhere - mayve dynamicdrive.com or phpfreaks.com or something). \n\ni like php for my stuff- - i think i'd make users register for the site w/ email address and ask them if they'd like to be added to my mailing list onthe same form, and let it all flow into a mysql DB.

Check with the webmaster of the site you are using and make sure you tell your commisioner.

You have nothing to worry about sweetheart.\n\nJust tell your daughter that the internet is a tool, and like all tools you should use it correctly or you will get in to trouble with mommy!\n\n\nNow about your legal issue,...\n"It stated that she had been caught participating in an illegal activity and that someone would be in contact within a certain period of time."\n\nThis is NOT sop (standerd operating procejure).... I am almost speachless... there are too many things wrong to even count!\n\nFirst off... No one can know "who" you are on the internet. So how can one get in touch with you... The only "address" that your computer leaves behind when you go to a website is your IP number which your internet service provider assigns you. So, lets say for argument, you used your computer to go onto an illegal website and you left your IP address in the "web servers" web "log" records, No police orginization has the power or the right to demand your ISP (internet service provider) for your information.\n\nHey and also.... dont you think police would try to ammount more then enough evidence (rather then one day worth of looking at illegal websites), before tipping their hand by telling the bad guy "oooo we are coming for you, watch out!"\n\nwell at this point you might be wondering... "but how do the police catch the bad guys that I see on the TV all the time"\n\nAh,.... thats were I come in....\n\none word.  "white-hat"... (or ethical computer hacking). One can have the power to remotely access a computer and if they were to find anything illegal, the local police might suddenly get that information in one way or another... after the tip off, after a great deal of investigation, police serve a warrent with "probobal cause" and siese the target computer.\n\nand another way people get caught,... they use a credit card to pay for access to illegal websites...I dont belive I need to explain this one...\n\nso...  the message you got was probobly just someone having a fun time at your scared little daughters expense, and probobly nothing will come of it... (um do make sure you have all updates and also if you are not running a antivirus or firewall... install one... if they do have your IP, they might try to "break in" and sniff around your computer, this way, they can figure out who you are and where you are located.)\n\n\n\nwell hope that helps alittle

On most sites such as Yahoo, MSN, forums etc, they have a usage policy, or sometimes called EULA or end user licence agreement.\nThese state how the site is controlled, what behaviour is acceptable etc.\nMost times you can find it when you look at the sites help files or FAQ's.\nMost of these type of sites are monitored to a point electronically, so any language etc or behavour is picked up and when a warning is given and not heeded, they tend to suspend the account.

If you take bad advice from an Internet chat/question and answer site, it is YOUR FAULT! Stop trying to find ways to sue people. You are not hiring someone for legal advice on Yahoo answers. See a licensed attorney in your state if you need legal advice. If you do something EXTREMELY stupid as a result of a website, you were EXTREMELY stupid to begin with.\n\nWell, after all that, I would love to give you some case law and advice about liability, but that would be legal advice and my lawyer is not in today to write me up a disclaimer to add at the bottom of this.

Check with your local ISP.  They frequently have someone on staff who can develop a basic site for you. If you are looking for something more substantial, it may cost you, but check the yellow pages ...\n\nIf I knew where you lived, I might be able to recommend someone more specific ...\n\nIn the end, decide what exactly you want to accomplish with your website, and shop around.  Be obvious, tell everyone who quotes you that you are loking for the best deal !!

You could go far beyond that with relatively little effort. \n\nMy own Web host has a great program. It's advertised as being for small businesses, but many non-profits use it to good effect.  The biggest strength is the way it guides you to drive traffic to your site. The biggest problem of being on the Web is having people find you if they don't already have your URL. If that's even remotely interesting to you, be sure to check out the URL below. (They even have a feature where you can speak by phone to someone who will answer your specific questions. You can get to them through the second URL below.\n\nMy own site is at http://www.writershelper.com
