Nor is the domain name registered to Paisley Park Enterprises, as the official names have been.

When I went to that link it started opening new browsers with the same page over and over. Did anyone else experience that? My spider sense usually starts tingling when sites I don't know start misbehaving. Something dodgy going on?

That is very strange.

The entire site would be confusing to anyone who recently heard about the club and found this link to join, especially after reading this...found under 'Help' on this site:

"Doesn't Prince have another websight?
A: Prince has had several websights over the years. However, www.xvweb.com is now the one and only official websight. All relevant material from past websights is now located here."

But...could it be some sort of storing area for the old site? I don't know anything about web hosting or design...but maybe it's stored here or was a template for the old site...I dunno..

I had thought that but theres banners all over it which says something dodgy is going on to me. If it was an exact copy of the old site I would think it is just a storing area but someone is deffinatly tryng something..
