Bob,
Since you say they're whitehats, I'll go ahead and whitelist them in
SURBLs.  Of minor interest one of their nameservers is on SORBS:

  212.118.243.118   dns5.name-services.com

  http://www.sorbs.net/lookup.shtml?212.118.243.118

And their third party advertising partner, whom they claim not to
share email addresses with:

  http://www.accuradio.com/privacy.asp

appears to have some possible connections to spamming:

Note that the best place to send whitelist requests is probably
to whitelist at surbl dot org, though I personally like open
discussion of these in most cases.
