Well.......

    There's not much you can do about it, really.  Firstly, I'd write
whoever owns the website, and ask them to change it.  Secondly, folks
could write whoever hosts the website, and make objections.

    If that don't work, then everyone with a link to the site should
remove it.  Then find out where this guy lives, and do something
simple; like a nice bomb threat to this mother.  If fun and games like
that don't work, I suggest offended parties select sawed-off shotguns
at 4 paces.

    I'll stand seconds for whoever needs it.

    .... But about the first two ideas; get a list together of the
plagery (everyone check).  See how many active people have been
stole from.  Then we'll write some e-type mails and see if it does
any good.
