Subject: Sites that aren't the ones you are looking for!

Recently I've noticed a few irish dance sites that either are no longer an irish dance site and is now a porn site or a URL which, if the s is left out, can lead to a porn site.
The first is the old Celtic Art Wear site... click on any links to that and you'll most likely find yourself at some persons webcam site... we don't want to know what she does on there!
Secondly is the site www.hardshoes.com - this is the irish site. A pretty good site too I might add. But accidentally leave off the s and type in www.hardshoe.com and you'll find yourself in a porn site.
This is a big issue - what about our young dancers who are on the net??? I know many other sites which are like other things - (ie: the 'ten' tv station site opposed to the 'ten' porn site - without the .au it can be misleading!) but its really sad to see sites which appear to have something to do with irish dancing when you click on the link or type in the URL really having nothing to do with it at all... whats worse is that it lead to areas which children definately should not be exposed to.
Any agreence with this?? What do you think??
