Thanks but you all miss the point

1) Unlike other spamvertized links (including yahoo ones!) SC seems to
ignore geocities

2) Although SC detects the link it does nothing and is totally silent on its
status (did SC report it without telling us or put it in /dev/null?)

If SC is going to tell us what it is doing on other spamvertized links it
should also do so for geocities and report them to yahoo just like it does
for yahoo and other spamvertized links.
