Sorry guys, the forum has been attacked this morning.

The only way to get it working again was by restoring a data-base back-up made April 11th: a lot of topics and posts have been lost.

If you've registered after April 11th you'll have to register again.

To the hacker who caused this, I wish you'll have the runs for the rest of your %^$#@# life and I hope it'll end very soon >:(

Tried at about 4:30 am Eastern time this morning and could not log in. Death is to quick. I say we put the hacker in front of the entire forum for target practice!!
Sure am glad  you got it back up.

Was just this forum hacked/defaced or was the webhost under attack causing loss?

I didn't notice anything this morning..

Good job Brutuz and also for getting it done in a very timely manner.

I noticed it about 5:30 am central time and sent packrat an eMail cause I could not find yours.

That was the question I asked, why this little airgun forum?  Guess some scum just have nothing better to do.  We will catch them one day and then it is curtains.
