Looks like an inoperative site hosted on another server. There was some server changes in 2005 and looks as if it used during a changeover to another server.

The above kerz quote is from http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic ... 1&t=205203

Forums.mozillazine.org has always been in use.

There has been different changes over the earlier days. For example boards.mozillazine.org was a test or even temp board when forums.mozillazine.org was being upgrade.

@James - Probably because of this site- (lots of German sites try and load stuff) http://www.ipv6-spider.com/en/host/sava ... lazine.org
. . . But Google link indicates it's hosted on mywot.com.

Do you have any suggestions on what purpose of loading stuff from German is? would it be related to a tracking or malware activity?

Do you have any suggestions?

No....It's not, as has already been explained.

Locking this as it's going nowhere.
