Did we suffer a database roll back? - some posts we made are missing or big brother deleted them.

was there a virus in the small attachment because this is the only site i was on all day when i opened one of those my anti virus went off took me 3 hours to get rid of it dont see what pleasure people get from making a computer virus they want to be stood up against a wall and shot in my opinion

regards pete

I think somewhere in a few of the newer posts some kind of a virus got into something and they erased some of the stuff to get rid of it.(just guessing here don't know for sure what happened) I went on line and into RCU about 10 oclock am pacific time and it did seem like it was all messed up somehow,apears to be OK now.-----BIGMIG

thought the same as the charge dia pics i uploaded werent acessible earlier and now they are think maybe a couple of threads had been Hi-jacked

we rolled back to our 12am est snapshot of the db last night. a hacker out of china inserting some data in the db so rather than sort through it which could have taken days to get right we rolled back to the clean snapshot. sorry about any lost data during that 12 hour period but those are the slowest hours of the day fortunately so it could have been worse.

i agree with you about the highjack but where do the idiots who make these things get the fun out of doing something like this

totally AGREE mate WHY [:@][:@][&:][&:][&:]

thankfully the admin guys sorted it THANKS Guys

Thanks for the clarification RCAdmin, your course of action is understandable. Be sure to never interface your Heng Long with your PC !

LOL

Whatever it was got into my PC while RCU was offline and turned off my Anti-Virus! Took 30 minutes to clean up and I never even opened any of the attachments that came in overnight or during the morning, all went into the recycle bin.

figured something happened. had that happen to an anime forum i mod. wasnt hard to fix it but it kept going to his page and wanting you to download some thing.... bad hackers are bad...

I seen the attachment, but it was just an inert javascript file. I'm all patched up, running some good anti-spy stuff, and nothing happened to me. For interests sake, what browser, OS and anti-spyware stuff do you guys have? (dont say Norton...)

i run AVG pretty good combined with SPYBOT
