Emergency Server Maintenance

[imported_Webmaster]

Due to some worm going around the net I'm told these servers will be periodically bounced at various times over the next day. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thanks! I noticed something funny yesterday when my firewall kept detecting some area of the forum pages that were catagorized as 'games' and blocked. And today I kept getting prompted to sign on again to the forum every time a page changed.

interesting .I haven't had anything like that. I use Mozillla Firefox...you?

Actually if its catagorized as games it means your firewall url filter is picking up on keywords. Signing in time and time again usually is due to a stuck process or a firewall improperly inspecting cookies that pass.


None of my detection software has blipped with this site. Another got hit by a worm and all sorts of alerts when off in my monitoring systems.

One wierd thing I've noticed is my pop-up/ad blocker/filter (AdSubtract) keeps unloading, even with Mozilla...related?

That sounds like a piece of spyware has gotten through and is actually uninstalling it.
