Guys,

I just tried to look up pricing on woodpelletprice....com

I won't post the link as a precaution

I get a hack notice popping up from some SOPA hacker. Something about Morocco

Be careful.

Yep same here! Dang, I was just on it the other day too! Sure hope Seth can recover!

Pretty sick what some will do! :sick:
 
Virus got my computer about three weeks ago that my anti-virus wouldn't remove. They were recognized as severe threats of the type that could take control of my computer according to Microsoft. I tried two more programs which removed several but more threats appeared. I had to do a restore of my system to "as bought" and for three days reload numerous Vista updates. They are still coming. No more serious threats, only tracking cookies.
 
Well that sucks, I wonder if he can still close the domain name?
 
Sure hope Seth has a back up and can get this straightened out. I check the site couple times a week for deals. I having withdrawels now!
 
That sucks hope the site can recover I use it weekly. Why would anyone hack a pellet price web site? This sounds like an attack on the pellet users maybe it is the oil/gas companies getting back at us for not paying the high heating bills.(EDIT Just a joke jabbing at the oil man.) On a side note I wish that they would remove dealers that don't update the prices from the site.

X2!! Remove the prices that are WAY out of date. :bug:
 
It's got nothing to do with pissing anyone off (other than people that actually use the site) Hackers will hack ANY site just to see if they can. We had the Photo album section of Mobile home repair.com hacked. Some People have too much time on their hands!!!
