Hm.

That sounds a lot like gadgetreview.com, which is a popular (30k view per day) consumer gadget review blog.

Let&#;s do a little more sniffing. A whois search returns a Russian registrar and an anonymized Russian registrant.

So, what have we learned? This is a fake website in Russia that sounds a lot like a real website, linked off of a car forum based on a US radio show by a guy who doesn&#;t speak English very well and who joined the site mere moments before he posted this - i.e., didn&#;t even take the time to look around or see how things work here.

Now, I&#;ll grant you that it&#;s remotely possible that this is all innocent, but the overwhelming likelihood from a security standpoint is that this is a site that&#;s looking to do something nefarious to whoever stumbles into it. Don&#;t click.

And @cdaquila might want to disable that link before it gets someone in trouble.

It's not a quick or really easy job. Doesn't take a lot of skill, fortunately. I'm not sure how identical to my car her '95 is, but you'd probably have to pull the entire dash to get at the heater core behind the glove compartment.<BR><BR>Are you sure that the problem is the heater core and not some other component of the heating system? I think pretty much any other component of the heating system would be easier than the heater core.<BR><BR>If you decide to try and replace the heater core, I can give you some guidance, and I suppose an iso of a '97 Service CD, that might help with directions.
