Does anyone have a way to contact owner of concertina.net?

We have some evidence, however, that you may have to pay for the reeds.

Just now when I tried to go to concertina.net I received a popup script and an alert that the file xpladv771.wmf was trying to save itself and load from the temporary internet files directory. The only way out is to kill Internet Explorer. I can't get into c.net without encountering this thing, and I can't get anywhere on c.net because of it.

A quick Google indicates that this file name is known to infect message boards. Does anyone have the email addy for the owner (Paul something, I think) or administrator of concertina.net to let them know that this is occuring?

There's a link on the front page of concertina.net (main site, not forums).
paul AT concertina.net
A good reason not to use IE!

I don't at home, but at work I have no choice :/

Thanks! I've emailed him.

Edited to add...I got a screenshot of the site URL that is trying to load when you go to concertina.net...pardon the weird colours, I had to use MS Paint.

Tell us something.: How doth the little crocodile
     Improve his shining tail,
And pour the waters of the Nile
     On every golden scale!

How cheerfully he seems to grin,
     How neatly spreads his claws,
And welcomes little fishes in,
     With gently smiling jaws!

It is undergoing maintence and should be up soon. I checked with Paul and he's working on it.
Insanity takes its toll. Please have exact change.
