I think that all Garm needs to worry about today is the open house. He will have guests on site and that is more important IMHO. Hell I would have been there if I could have.

Well, at least there are plenty of very helpful people here on Yarisworld. So at least we can get our install help/info fix here.

Just saw the site, what bullshit... Anyways no smart ass "Arab" is gonna rain on the open house. All the locals are showing up there today, forum or no forum. If his goal was to harm MI, he failed miserably. The MI stickers on alot of Yarii around the world are more than enough to own this loser.

And god help him if he ever comes face-to-face with Garm. He's a really nice guy and won't hesitate to help you out where he can, but get on his bad side and he'll (kids, stop reading this now) stick his foot so far up your ass he'll tickle your brain with his toes.

lol I'd like to see that... but for what it's worth, this does not seem to be a targeted attack, just seems like some kiddies who think they're so smart found a loophole in the hosting account somewhere and messed something up... other sites also had the same thing...

for all we know it could be a 68 yr old grammy that found her grandkid's toolkit. Anyone can make anything like anyone did it.

That's true In fact I was just thinking the same thing. (although I somehow don't think someone's grandma did it )

Sit tight, the MI site may be down but you can still reach every one through here, so just relax and give them time to do what they need to do to get the site up and running again.

perhaps some may wish to sit loose...sitting tight too long can cause muscle fatigue and possible paralysis eventually...not to mention those pesky pins and needles...

Stuff like this pisses me off, there's being a hacker that is one thing and there is being a complete douchebag script kiddy. It drive me nuts on how many viruses are out there that destroy systems. I don't get it, what do these people have to prove; that they are A hole nerds?

I remember back in the day of hacking it use to all be for the thrill of just cracking the system. Now its all malicious attacks and destruction. So not cool.

I think the problem was that he was running an outdated version of vBulletin. The Google cache page shows version 4.0.3 and the latest version is 4.0.7. Since his main page of the site (index.html) redirected to the forum, he should just change the redirect to some other page for now and disable the forum.

This same person has also attacked sites that use WordPress.

Yikes! This site is running 3.8.0. Knock on plastic Yaris interior panels LOL.

The store is still up since nothing was deleted. If you want to browse it here it is
http://shop.microimageonline.com/main.sc
I'd wait until this hacking problem is resolved before ordering.

Yup, I have had to get a new debit card because a couple years back Newegg had an issue with part of their site being hacked for a few products and I purchased one of those said products. Next thing I know there were all kinds of things being purchased on NE from 12 buck stuff to 400 buck stuff.

Same here. Well, they got rid of the hacker's splash page but it's still not back to normal.

Give them a little time!
