Dave, when I clicked on the link my firewall (Norton) indicated that the
site was attempting to launch a Trojan Horse attack ("Sokets de Trois
v1.")

For IP, if you like.

 From Slashdot:

        from the picture-taker-worth-a-thousand-bucks dept.

        Bert64 writes "A chap at work was recently the victim of an ATM
        card skimmer which took his card details, cloned them and
        allowed the fraudster to take 550 pounds out of his account.
        Having tried to explain how the fraudsters can hide a camera and
        card reader around the ATM, he decided it would be easier to
        show one of them after a few drinks down the pub. He was a
        little surprised to find that the machine he chose had a card
        reader and camera in place. These were removed and analysed, we
        believe we have reclaimed about 800 pounds worth of kit. Result:
        Pictures."
