Curt - NC Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 Sometime very late last night, Tackle Underground was hacked by a wonderful someone with too much free time on their hands. I didn't spot it until Nathan alerted me during the late morning today. I know it was still running last night at somewhere around 9:00 PM Eastern time when I checked it. Over the course of the day today I worked with the support people at Invision Power Systems to get everything running again. As of right now, the site is loading again, but I haven't been able to verify that everything is 100% back up to par. If you spot anything that isn't working within the site, please PM me or post on the Tackle Underground Facebook page, at https://www.facebook.com/tackleunderground Thanks for your patience while we finish sorting this all out.

Curt - NC Posted November 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 Thanks Dave! There is still come cleanup going on in the background, but at least the site is up and running again. Sometime in the next day or two I will also be doing an upgrade to the site software, so hopefully that will go smoothly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayburnGuy Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 Thanks for staying on top of everything Curt. The site has been running smooth and fast since you figured out what the problem was and fixed it. Ben 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt - NC Posted December 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 Finally, the software updates are finished. I apologize for the long period of being Offline. It wasn't supposed to take that long, but the Holiday weekend kind of threw a wrench into everything. I will be continuing to work on getting everything back to the way it was, so please be patient for just a little longer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad it fixed the problem for you! Speaking of fixing problems, this latest update should have corrected some other problems too, including the copy/paste issues that some people were having with Internet Explorer. With that said, I still don't recommend using Internet Explorer. Firefox is still the best, in my opinion, with Chrome landing in a distant second place.

alsworms Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 Completely agree with you, Curt. I've been barking at my wife for years to switch over from IE, but she won't budge! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayburnGuy Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 Firefox for me as well. I wouldn't use IE if they paid me. Ben 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not a big problem for me but just wanted to let you know that it takes alot of time to get any notification. I don't know the exact time but over a day.

I don't know the exact time but over a day. Is this still happening even now? I know it happened last week when the server was being overloaded by a spammer. As soon as we thwarted the attack, a ton of notification emails came pouring! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bass100 Posted December 19, 2014 Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 Yes, it is still happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt - NC Posted December 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 Hmm.. anyone else having this problem, with lag time for the notifications? bass100, do you use a Gmail account, by any chance? I don't want you to post your email address, but I'm curious about who your email provider is. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt - NC Posted December 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 By the way, I know that it's not the site because I got 5 or 6 notifications just in the last few minutes when you replied to this post and when others replied to another post I made a few minutes ago. That's why I asked about your email provider. I know that Gmail is pitifully slow at delivering emails on a regular basis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
