I was looking at a number of links on David Hewitt's site, one of them being Little Creek Pottery. Thanks David for the resources.
Every time I tried to go to the Little Creek Pottery site, I was redirected to a listing of porn sites. If the owner of Little Creek Pottery site is a member of this list, please be aware that this is happening. I'd love to see the pottery site one day.
Also be aware that the folks doing that are also trying to install a program on the visitor's computer called something like WebSiteViewer. My Windows XP Pro and it asks me if I want to install any new program, so I can refuse it. I wouldn't visit Little Creek Pottery site without a lot of security protection: anti-virus, firewall, etc.

I have posted to the list about this, Linda, but evidently not everyone has
removed the link from their websites.
Another problem is that the link is in many archived Clayart posts,
including my own older ones, and if someone tries one of them, they will
get the same program.
The owner of the site is not able to do anything about it right at the
moment, as I understand it.
It's always a good idea to check links. Link checking software exists for
this, but I wonder if this sort of travesty would be caught by any of them?
