Subject: Yahoo Geocities allowing scam sites?

Not exactly on topic, but WTF is up with www.e-qo1d.com
<http://www.e-qo1d.com> ?  it is an e-gold scam site, and it is hosted
on yahoo geocities servers, using a premium hosting package.  I (and at
least 2 others) have sent emails to yahoo about it when it first came to
our attention (Jan 22nd), but nothing has been done about it, and it is
still up, and still on yahoo servers.  Does yahoo just not care anymore,
or what?

On a side note, it is f-ing impossible to find contact point for yahoo
geocities' abuse department - the email is lited no-where in their
help...  I finally foundnd it at abuse.net, but I would think an abuse
contact point would be something pretty damn basic...
