I got warnings" Not to log on" because the site will grab your info! I know it was BS but the hijack Just drops their info into the Parent folder ofthe site and redirects you to another!
My most embarraasing problem is I had a website for a Universal church get hi jacked by a Abortion clinic! Very troubling! Got it clear in 4 hrs

I was wondering what was up.
my puter was telling me the certificate was bogus, and gave me a 404 error if I did try to click in.

I got the same message as Fiver, but didn't try to log on so no 404.

Looks like IT got it whipped.

Got it, too, and reckoned it was some sort of phishing expedition.

Kevin said it was a bandwidth issue. The quotas were changed and that solved the problem.
Seems traffic is up and that is a good thing.
Would have been up a bit sooner but server guy is Pacific time and Kevin decided to let him sleep a bit longer.

At the casting bench in the sky. RIP Bret.
It was the Rooshins colluding with the Antifa crowd with some Wikileaks thrown in! It's true! Just read it on EMESS+BC!

No hijack, nothing nefarious. You guys are just using the site too muh. ;)

Seriously, it tripped a bandwidth limit with the hosting company. Got that resolved and we're good to go. Now, get back to posting and reading!

I too had issues this morning and thought I had been hacked. I switched to MS edge from chrome because of it. Freakin hackers!

I was afraid we lost our site like mausercentral did. It took a while before they got back online with a new domain name. Lost quite a bit of the stickies.

Glad we are back!

No hack, just surpassed the expected traffic so the server shut it down.

Fear not guys, Kevin will keep us online. We do need to remember he does have a day job and family but he does a damn fine job.

After the "nope" error I checked out CB and my phone IP is locked out but my WiFi IP went right in ........... Weird . Just a heads up because my phone (as I understand it) dumps all the junk when I restart it and has multiple bug whackers in it .
