    Looks like Neal Horsley's sites are hosted by Verio. Here's some background 
    on Horsley and his anti-abortion crusading:

    Subject: Under Attack!  Planned Parenthood Moves To Silence Me and My Web Sites
    Date: Tue, 8 Jul 2003 12:26:34 -0500
    
    I received the following message this morning:
    
    Subject: AUP/TOS Violation [216.127.72.94] Case #: 1160
    
    
    It has come to our attention that your server located at
    [216.127.72.94] is in violation of our AUP/TOS by way of the following
    URL(S): http://christiangallery.com/atrocity/aborts.html,
    http://abortioncams.com/, http://wesecede.com/, christiansunited.net
    
    The URL(S) stated above is in violation by way of these domains
    violate our AUP/TOS by way of Threats.  Please remove these domains by
    end of business.
    
    We must demand that you take prompt action in the removal of the
    material in question or we will be forced to take further action. The
    time is now 7/8/03 9:53:58 AM.
    
    _________________________________________________________
    
    There is nothing on any of those web sites that is not in strict compliance 
    with the law as it is presently written and interpreted by the courts in 
    the USA but there is probably nothing we can do to keep them from pulling 
    the plug on the sites.
    
    It is obvious that our enemies have decided now is the time to silence our 
    online presence.  Given what we know about their tactics in the past, this 
    is a way to make it easier to take other actions against us without having 
    the hundreds of thousands of people who visit our web sites each month know 
    about what is happening.
    
    For those who hate what we do, now is the time to gloat.  But gloat while 
    you can: you will learn what it is to fear God; for the God we serve can 
    raise the dead.
    
    One of the reasons we started the Abortion Abolitionist magazine was 
    because we knew the time might come when we could find no Internet Service 
    Provider who would carry The Christian Gallery News Service or 
    AbortionCams.com.  Please consider subscribing to that magazine.
    
    Also Please keep this matter in prayer and if you can do more than pray 
    please let me know how you can help.  I am still out of work and do not 
    have the financial resources to mount an effective defense either 
    technologicly or legally.
