It looked for the last couple of weeks that the mice needed to be changed out. They would stumble for a while, catch up and run smooth, and then stumble, trip and fall, and then limp along. Need to invest in some of the new robomice to keep the wheel spinning.

I just got off the freeway driving home from San Diego.
I'm getting up to speed on what is going on.
It looks like it's either a DDOS or server crash issue.
GeoVario is working on it but we don't have an estimate on a fix yet.
I'll give more info as I get it.

I just got an update, it seems that someone hacked the PHP files.
Fortunately whatever the hack was suppose to do it failed because GeoVario's servers have security checks on all files.
What it did do was fire off so many alarms on the PHP servers that it stopped serving up pages.

Right now Michael and GeoVario are fixing the problem and getting the site back up.
We have all the logs so later we'll get in to forensics and find the source, then we can see what legal action needs to be taken.

I'd suggest that the Brady Bunch was up to shenanigans, but I'm not sure that they're that smart.

Bumslie gave me $20 Basement Bucks to hack CGN. How could I pass that up?

It was Calguns specific, a crapload of PHP files were altered.

Yes he is and I really feel sorry for him.

He was literally just getting in his car to go have lunch with his wife and daughter when his phone got the alerts.
He had to stand up his family and go back to the office to work on this.

All whoever it was really managed to do was ruin Michael's time with his family and screw over a good man.

Send him a good bottle of wine? Or if he is in So Cal, some Disneyland tickets for the family.  8)

I'm already planning to find a nice restaurant near him and send him a gift certificate for the family.
He missed lunch the least i can do is cover dinner.

Ive cleaned the entire house, cooked dinner, stripped and clean my AR and SKS, went out and bought beer (damn angels started to lose so i turned that off).

And even got a date (with a woman at that!)

My day was far too productive! Damn you hackers!
