Ha! Well I just went to the URL using a dummy address :

http://topsitez.us/update.htm?d=xyzabcxyz.com&v=2134&e=w

As I suspected, it's a bit of a scam - "oh dear, you aren't listed - but
we can list you on the front page for just $zillions per year"

Hehe

I've had a few of these, but I'm one of these cynical people and doesn't

click anything without good reason, so I ignored them.

If it *is* a scam, I wouldn't be surprised, but it's probably just
advertising spam.
