Did you guys hear other small financial websites and discussion forums getting targeted? or it is only this one? - kisa

well, kisa, I did a search for the name of a company that was mentioned in a post of mine that was being targetted. I added the search term "fraud" and surprisingly, only a few references came up. Of the two that were reasonably relevant, one site is down as of 2/20. It could easily be coincidence, but then again maybe not. I have found a number of financial sites to be having trouble over the past two weeks. Not all, but a few. And other unrelated sites seem to have been down a bit too recently. It could easily be kiddie scripts randomly working over sites. Mark

Had it worked on the financial websites only, it would've been too obvious anyway...

I presume that you have investigated for any "banned" members that might be doing this.

Tice's forum has been having troubles. Web is screwed. Video is exploding; nobody is ready.

Wifey's aol mail was real slow this am. I had some business with the OK secretary of state and it was overloaded for while. Stockcharts was very slow. I had very poor internet this am. Seems OK now with 0.1210 sec posted at the bottom.
