SEPR's... ouch!

Someone in this newsgroup asked a similar question a month or two back. It
is not quite possible to limit the demands that reach from Google if I
recall correctly. That was the conclusion reached, I think. My recollection
tells me that the best move would be to contact Google saying that your
dedicated server is knocked on too hard.
(since I bound my name to the subject line, I might as well go all the way)
001 650 330 0100
Call them to get an E-mail address and then be in touch with a real person
promptly.
Hope it helps,
Roy
