What has happened to the "The Wood Whisperer" webpage?

[Mort Stevens]

Both the main page...

and the video page...

seem to have been hacked!

[Michael Mayo]

Loaded up fine for me??? Looks like the feeds page is the one having issues possibly a hosting company problem with the servers. But you can get to all of the content via the regular webpages.

[Matt Day]

Main page looks okay to me?

I don't know this to be true, but seems I read a few days ago, he had been the victim of some type of computer virus or something of that nature. Again, don't know this to be true. Lewis

Just tried it right now and all I get is a "http://o/" in the upper left corner... hasn't worked for me in over a week. Something must have changed on their end, maybe they're using some sort of fancy javascript stuff, which don't work for me, because looking at their source code it start off with "script language=JavaScript" - Oh, well, too bad, I used to enjoy The Wood Whisperer.

According to the forums there, they are under some sort of cyber attack.

[Mike Heidrick]

Another guild attacked them. LOL.

[paul cottingham]

He is the victim of a denial of service attack.
ouch.

[Matt Meiser]

Maybe the Gass or CPSC shut him down because he doesn't own a Sawstop?

[Curt Harms]

He is the victim of a denial of service attack.
ouch.

What an interesting choice of target. It'd be hard imagine someone less controversial than Marc.

[Bob Lloyd]

The site seems to be back working OK this morning.

I think there are many cyber delinquents that snoop around for someone using particular software that they know how to hack then they fire away just for fun. I ran a website for a guild of MMORPG players, probably less than 50 active members and someone though it was funny to attack us. Pretty pathetic, really. I had never made any real effort to secure anything because there was nothing there worth securing. Attack was kind of clever, they uploaded the Perl equivalent of the Norton utilities as an attached image (script named with a jpg extension), then tricked the forum software into executing it. Was kind of worth the inconvenience just to see the process. Took me all of 30 minutes to work out what happened and lock that type of attack out.

Some snarky comment about Trolls set them off, prolly.
Geek fights - Jayzus!

I logged on a few minutes ago and it was fine. I didn't know he was having cyber-issues. I just thought the activity on his site had slowed down due to the new arrival at his house.
