This email also contains a list of what they claim is the top 5 hosts which are all obscure hosting companies.

When we do a search for ArkLinux iwe find a post that states it was taken over by spammers.

http://bero.eu/arklinux.html

What we have here is a Spammer that is telling people a lie about their Website's uptime!

The site is owned by:

Registrant Organization:Star Cpwebhosting pvt. ltd.
Registrant Street: SP2, Shastri Market
Registrant City:Jaipur
Registrant State/Province:Rajasthan

If you have received such an email you can be sure of one thing - they are trying to sell hosting from either their service or from their affiliate deals / advertisers

Nothing real here so ignore it.
