Re: Legit service?

Instead of validating whether a company is legit based on having a website and email addresses, you may want to do some research from a company registration source.

Since this company was incorporated in 2004 in England, companieshouse.gov.uk would be the appropriate source.

I dont know anything about this company but is seems strange that it has already changed its name 2 additonal times since 2004.

Previous Names:
Date of change Previous Name
31/10/2005 JDI SOFTWARE LIMITED
13/08/2004 ALTCOM 368 LIMITED

Wierd?

Hi,

It appears to me that it is fairly legit. I just tried typing into google: 3bview.com and saw what was returned. Generally, if the site is malicious, it won't have contact information or people actively posting questions/answers using a domain based email (i.e. first.last@xxxxxxxxxx). I have found this and more regarding 3bview.com (there was even a reference to the site on linuxjournal.com). I didn't do any indepth research, but I got a good sense that their legit.

Good luck!

Zach
