Not sure, looks like someone is spoofing their email and sending a link to an exe file.

looks like some do-do hacked into it and messed it up. What a waste of time and energy.

 I was surfing that site from work today using IE. I sure as hell hope I didn't download a virus into my computer and screw our whole company.

The scary part for me is that someone has my e-mail address that should not. I wish I was e-mail savvy like John Dunkle at rennlist. He recently posted his method to deal with spam on the 911 e-mail list. Very clever!

They are using an older version of vBulletin which has many security holes in it...

Isn't hacking a harmless, victimless crime? Kind of like taking an "abandoned" car that's been sitting out in a field for years.

Well as long as there is interest..... here ya go.... Mr Dunkel sez: Heh..... Remember - there is no IQ test to post to the Internet... ;^) For folks like Jon - I usually have a "special surprise" - along with the folks that run his SPAM websites/servers and messages... Their mailboxes fill up pretty fast with - along with the tech folks, support folks, their abuse folks, their.. Actually - any e-mail address from that SPAM server/IP address/Domain Registration.... I usually send back - oh - tens of thousands of copies of thier OWN messages (to only that list of "users" - NOT THEIR SPAM list of hundreds of thousands of folks who are their victims, not mine) - which after a few minutes, elicts an e-mail to my ADMIN account, requesting that I look into "copies" being sent.... Oh - OK..... Now that I have a REAL e-mail address, I start all over - looking up domain names, contacts, president, Technical contact, sales - and have my systems start sending... But, t usually stops after about 5000+ copies.... Next e-mail - is usually pretty frantic from them... I usually reply "I'll look into it". Nothing more... Wait a few hours - and do it again to the real addresses/domain names that they have now supplied..... About 24 hours later - I'm ready to reply - something like: "In looking at the logs, it seems your servers tried to SPAM my servers (details of the e-mail here). Do it again, and I'll put EVERY address from your company and associates into an infinite loop from multiple IP blocks and addresses, so trying to block them would be an exercise in how to be stupid. You won't be able to do it. Want to try?. By the way - you are already reported as being a Spammer." Works pretty well.... But, for that - Rennlist has been fortunate. Over the past 7 years, it happens only very infrequently. If you want SPAM on a list - try a Yahoo or Netscape list... Yikes!!! For me? It's pretty entertaining.... John D.
