quirky1 Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 Functions such as View New Posts and Mark All Posts Read no longer appear on the screen, drop-down menus are empty, buttons with no text description, and more. It makes no difference which skin (Classic Grey or Go Green) is selected. Is anyone else experiencing this? Quote

MikeT Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 It was an attack from a Kazakhstan-based hacker, thanks to Speedie and others for getting on it. Quote
bilgladstone Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 Hurrah! for Speedie and the others! I still think there should be some way for us to donate a few bucks for hosting and maintenance... Bil Quote
Speedie Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 Well since CsC has gone back to a semi-anarchy based self-administered - seperate but equal and all that stuff mode - and since I am not dealing with a world of grief in my personal life now - I will see what I can do for setting up something.Cheers,Cameron Quote
Francesco Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 That actually made me laugh out loud. Quote

MikeT Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 Steven got some cash for hosting in 2011 and 2012, but Speedie is talking about maybe buying new software and that would need to be paid for. Quote
Speedie Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 That will be in the not too distance future - right now we have to make sure the site is okay and no left overs from our less than pleasant visitor - I have a handle on how they did it so I have been able to check up on things - so far so good.In fairness - the address used was from Kazahstan but the hacker probably was just using it as a proxy - I would guess either Europe or another country - 286 computers that they use in Kazahstan are just not up to a lot of hacking activity.The new software is not expensive - but will save us a world of grief.Cheers,Cameron Quote
MikeT Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 Thanks for the good work, by the way, the Wiki articles still have some missing button labels (I just edited the 450 cdi blown engine Wiki when I noticed it). Quote
