Yes, Brazz, I have 5 of the same myself, old domains that are perm zeros, caused I believe by the same thing- the use of a "doorway" page generator on those domains back in 2000.
They still get non-google traffic, so I keep them going, altho I do keep them kinda isolated from my other domains.
Those are the only perm zero's that I have personally studied up close. Earlier this year a few people started reporting cases that are similar to the old perm zero's- domains with good pr suddenly turning zero and losing most listings because of that, but not being banned in the traditional sense.
But it's a little too soon to know of these new cases are also going to be perm zeros. It's just too early to tell, they could have been the result of something else.
But I suspect that these new cases are also going to be permanent zero's. I now think the domain that Andy is talking about is also one of these cases.
