  Checked it using host, whois, traceroute, and ping. Here's the results of
the traceroute (with times lopped off) :

%traceroute sequential.com
traceroute to sequential.com (204.131.237.2), 30 hops max, 40 byte packets
 1  router.inna.net (206.151.66.5)

  Site shows up as an index with only "public_html" as a directory with
lots of porn stuff scattered around in subdirs. Mailing address for the
person in charge of the page (in
http://204.131.237.2/public_html/Home1.html) is ragtop@seqnet.net. I go to
seqnet.net, hit the table of contents for the sites they host, hit
Sequential Systems and am greeted with the same public_html directory.
  I just want to buy a hard-drive and maybe the Second Sight card for my
IIGS. It annoys the living hell out of me that I can even get to the
company and am greeted with this crap. Maybe ragtop isn't the one behind
this, I really don't know.. but it is absurd that someone else may get the
sale simply because I can reach their page.
