It is running on demo.jboss.com and needs to be taken down.    It's  
running with other demos on an old version of JBoss.  We are not able  
to upgrade the JBoss version for fear of messing up the other demos.   
At one time we had access to the JBoss instance on that machine from  
the demo account, but the last time I tried to administer it I found  
the JBoss instance was running as root and we couldn't reset it.   IT,  
as usual, was unresponsive.

We really need to remove the links to that demo machine.
