I discovered that the bulletin board had been hacked by someone. Actually, thousands of boards (like this one) were hacked.
It appears that the hacking was done by someone in Russia.

The symptoms would have been (but not limited to):
Slow access to the board
Possible redirection to a different web page
You might have seen googlerank.info or hostads.cn at the bottom bar trying to load.
Other weird symptoms.

The board has been fixed and all steps have been taken to ensure this does not happen again.

Please understand that this was not done by any user of the board.
Also any website can be hacked thru "back doors".

If you think the board has been compromised in the future, please be sure to Email the administrator jimgtg at once, so that the problem can be researched and corrected.

It is sad to say that some people have nothing better to do than to try to disrupt other people's websites.

Any attempt to hack any site is illegal!!

I apologize for any problems that this may have caused you in the past.
Sincerely,
Jim
