                   City, state and zip code: LYNCHBURG, VA  24502





          PART II. RULE 12B-25 (B) AND (C)

          If the subject report could not be filed without  unreasonable  effort
          or expense and the registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule 12b-25(b),
          the following should be completed. (Check appropriate box.)

          [X]  (a) The reasons  described  in  reasonable  detail in Part III of
               this form could not be eliminated without  unreasonable effort or
               expense;

          [X]  (b) The  subject annual  report, semi-annual  report,  transition
               report on Form 10-K,  Form 20-F,  11-K or Form N-SAR,  or portion
               thereof  will  be  filed  on or  before  the  15th  calendar  day
               following  the  prescribed  due date;  or the  subject  quarterly
               report or transition report on Form 10-Q, or portion thereof will
               be filed on or  before  the  fifth  calendar  day  following  the
               prescribed due date; and

          [ ]  (c) The  accountant's  statement  or other  exhibit  required  by
               Rule 12b-25(c) has been attached if applicable.

          PART III. NARRATIVE.

          State below in  reasonable  detail the  reasons  why Form 10-K,  11-K,
          20-F, 10-Q,  N-SAR or the transition  report portion thereof could not
          be filed within the  prescribed  time period.  (Attach extra sheets if
          needed.)

          The Form 10-QSB for the quarter ended September 30, 2002 for Sitestar
     Corporation could not be filed within the prescribed period because the
     Company was unable to complete certain information critical to filing a
     timely and accurate report on the internal financial aspects of the
     Company. Such inability could not have been eliminated by the registrant
     without unreasonable effort or expense.

               Investment  Company Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or

               report(s).

               will be reflected by the  earnings  statements  to be included in
