?? I didn't run anything out of the ordinary. Might not have anything to do with my virus checker going down I guess..
My internet explorer stopped the active x control before it ran luckily :/ Sounds nasty what it did to a few others!.
Glad the site is working again though.

The attacks came via google and yahoo bot links so I can't tell who might has issues. You might want to read up on this page for info if you're having problems:

Really simple...
Evil people that dressed up in google and yahoo outfits to hide themselves started throwing rocks at the site, breaking a few windows in the older part of the site (that we didn't build) and hurting a few members, I closed the front door so no one else could get hurt. When I got off the plane (was on a plane) I rebuild the old part and we're back.
Wasn't just our site, was a bunch of sites targeted.
I'm sorry for all the people that were affected, this has never happened before and wont happen again if I have anything to do with it. I'm afraid the internet is a little evil these days and you get this type of stuff all over the place.
