Thanks, Joe, John. Looks like R.Geiter's account is still compromised (I recall spam postings under his name from a few months ago)

I deleted all the spam posts created by R. Geiter's hacked account. I also locked R. Geiter's account for the time being. When Joe tells me it's OK to unlock it I will or he might have to create a new one.

Thank's Joe, Rick and John. I opened my Log-In this morning only to find this attached screen shot. I guess this is what the hack looked like to us. I thought it was my computer starting to crash.

Yup, I was getting the same thing when I tried to sign in yesterday. Forum had a strange look to it. Glad to see we are back up and running again. Thanks Joe!

Same process here.... And to make things even more "interesting," the "newest member" notification would change as well....
Thanks, Joe! I can breathe again!

Joe, were any of the forum's members passwords compromised? Should we all think about changing them? Do you know what this hacker was after?

Gents,
For what it's worth, forum member Edk alerted me this morning, and I sent off an email to Bruce. Thanks, Ed, Bruce and glad to see we are back up and running again. Thanks Joe!

Great job men. Also I want to thank Rich, that cat can always be counted on. Rich, Brother you are a good man. At first I thought, it was my computer. Again, thank you. I am sure you know how much this forum enhances peoples life. I want to wish everyone in Florida a safe ride as the hurricane approaches. ed
