I have to admit I don't actually know. They are working through godaddy. I can only say arachne.com isn't a name that lends itself to ilk. I've had occasional inquiries over the years but have had no trouble declining. Whoever it is seems very interested and came back several times to raise the offer until I stopped saying no. I'm curious to see what will be done with it.
