Dear ch.networkers,

as admin of spin.ch I have installed various hack-detectors at our site.
Now as far as I see, 80% of all tentatives come from compuserve,
15% come from aol. Now I have tried numerous times to contact compuserve 
and aol (postmaste, root etc.) about these issues. Without >ever<
recieving a single human written line.

What are your experiences with those two providers? Am I right in the
assumption, that either they don't give a damn about other sites
security and their own hackers or they don't have (by far) the 
ressources?

I wonder if this is their policy with client's security 
issues too...
