That is our URL.  We are Internet Marketing Inc, and we have
*NO* association with Cantor & Siegal.  I have not seen their
take of our CyberSight (http://venus.mcs.com/~flowers/html/cybernet.html)
yet... my partner has.

I am, as you can imagine, *EXTREMELY* angry about this... if anyone can 
offer some advice as how to prevent them from copying our work, I'd 
greatly appreciate it!
