SCORETOP shut down?

Well I'm aware there used to be copy righted material posted there However, since Jan 2007 they've stopped that and started a new VIP service.
Does anyone know if this a regular occurence with them?

IP-address wesbite
I don't know what the email address in between
It really should not hurt using the IP address and website. You can always edit the entry. That said, It looks like the site has been hacked and not taken down because of lawsuit. I googled for lawsuit against scoretop by GMAC and I am not getting any results. BTW, Ping, nslookup and traceroute all fail with the IP Address listed. So its not a correct one.
If ST is actually violating GMAT rules by publishing same/similar Q's from original GMAT, How good is any one's percentile who has scored 99 percentile and has been with ST and How bad is some one who scored 90/93 percentile without ST.
Jeez! Looks like all the GMAT scores are skewed and no wonder the 99 percentile climbed from 740 to 750 to 760 to 800???
My post is not intended to flame any one. I feel that its not fair to every one. Is it clear that they are NOT using copyrighted material any more? What do they teach in VIP section?
So, what should we do about that email from scoretop?
should we follow instructions?? has anyone done it??
Please reply
