Hi Linda – I, James Young am the investigator that sent the takedown notice relating to this case. I see that as requested cryptome.org have removed the page located at http://cryptome.org/0001/ms-cofee.htm - Separately that the .zip located at cryptome.net is now offline too.

Thank you for your assistance in this matter.

Best Regards,
