Dear Google,  I can not get any information about Grab.com which now
does not seem to be reachable any more. Did they fold?  Is there a
problem? Please see if you can find out.  Thank you. Grab.com was an
advertising medium with a daily Lotto Game. I can't find a suitable
category.

Hello Norton!

It appears that Grab.com is suffering from technical difficulties.

A WHOIS query at [ http://www.whois.sc/grab.com ] shows the domain as
Active, but lists the page title as "403 Forbidden" - a code which is
returned by the server when access is deliberately being denied,
usually because there is a problem with the site or it is undergong
maintenance.

Connected Encyclopedia explains the 403 Forbidden error here:

403 Forbidden
http://www.freesoft.org/CIE/RFC/2068/93.htm

Attempting to access the page produces a 500 Internal Server Error,
which indicates that there is a technical problem with the site that
the owners need to fix before it will function correctly again.

The text of the error reads:

"Technical Information (for support personnel)

    * Error Type:
      Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server (0x80004005)
      The precision is invalid.
      /aspaddin/Grab/GrabGeneral.asp, line 58"

...which indicates that there is a problem with the site's database.

For additional information, you can contact the sites owners:
