Forumup is working on the issue. Seems some hacker are hitting the domain hard.

I was wondering about that.... I've seen the error message 4-5 times over the last few days. I wonder if it's the same people that targeted the other European based citrus forums?

Don't they have something better to do?

I was wondering if it was just me or what.

I'll add my "Friday concidence", posted
link
Quote:
Just found PDF in my e-mail box: "BMW FASCINATION NEWSLETTER March 2013"
sent by local reseller Friday afternoon - around the time when Laaz & I mentioned them. Fascinating...
I do not recall anything like that received from them before.
Must be a coincidence, can't be a spam ... huh
Or by Occam's razor, maybe the sender is a citruholic, lurker here...

Also I saw "anti-hack ..." message over weekend, once, Saturday I think.

Fasten your belts, guys!
Those are still around.
I had to restart everything, locally.

Trying to post it, err msg:
"anti hacker flood system, please wait some seconds and reload. sorry errn#83"

I recently got about 10 Hi emails, with attatchments to USA business and real estate etc firms. Also most of my contacts seem to have got the same/similar emails. Otherwise I never get spam on that email account.
Does that sound like the hacking you are talking about ??

You can check the information on the forumup.com site. They are aware of the problem & are working on it. I doesn't have anything to do with individual accounts or emails.
