WAs it the owner doing this shit, or a client under them?

I think some of you could better yourselves by going over your english a few times, and maybe looking up the meanings of some business terms(as that is what we claim to be - businessmen, and women) ..
When the FTC freeze assets(temporarily) as done here, it is nothing even remotely similar to them 'shutting down' a company.. As this threads title so aptly puts it.. The FTC is trying to flex its muscles again no doubt, and is blatently mis-informed and very out of touch with this business and are taking misguided actions to rectify a situation that they have no ground rectifying as it has already been rectified.. Telcoweb is not gone, and won't be gone for a very very very long time as it is one of the very few companies that is anal about playing by the rules and doing everything in their power to prevent anything like this from happening in the first place.. This is going to be resolved quicker that it started, no doubt with the FTC placing an apology as they find out how off base they are..
There are two words that are and always have been sinomous with Telcoweb, Reliable and Secure. They would never jeapordize the long term benifits of this business by not preventing bullshit like this,and anything that suggest otherwise is just being ludicrous..

I can be lazy when it comes to GFY :Graucho

HOLY SHIT, I thought you said Taco Bell.

Del Taco is better anyway.

So, is there any word on this ??? I'd like to get my money from them, he he he.
