RC is safe...

contrary to any 'redirect' you may have seen. It was a tangled glitch that took one good guy much of his Thanksgiving holiday to straighten out. It is now up and running right.

Were you the good guy?

That explains the weird advertisement redirect I got. Thanks for resolving it, especially during the US holidays!

It wasn't me. It was one of the admin guys, the unsung heroes of RC who make the gears all work.

Was going to commend you if it was you. But yeah, that stuff is way beyond my abilities...it's comparable to magic to me

Thanks to those who keep this place running, especially over a holiday!

Thanks guys, it is good to be back.

Thanks much to all the admins!!!

However, I just came into RC from a google search (external vs. internal pump sump in google), and was redirected to the malware site (file72.info or somesuch). It's been doing this for several days, and has done this repeatedly in the past few hours. But only for the first time you click in from google.

I've found my emoticons (sp) aren't working I can see them, but when I click on them nothing happens. And I can't access my sent PM's. I get new and can see all the old ones that came in, but I can't access my sent file? Also I've see a change in the 'mark this form read' process, but at least it still works.

Any ideas?

Just think... If Sk8r knew as much about computers as he/she does about reefing... Hacking Apexes and ReefLinks... He/she could fix all problems or make them worse...

at least it was left ambiguous this time, LOL.

So was this a DNS redirect or did the site itself get hit? (professional curiosity...)

This problem I reported no longer exists, it seems. Thanks again to all the administrator and the staff!
