Yes...we are under attack by the Santy Worm. I think we are protected...thats why the site was down a bit earlier in the week...we upgraded PHP which should protect us.

EDIT: changed Sanity to Santy....I just figured it was sanity because thats what I am losing right now!

I've opened my browser about 595 times in the past hour. 5+595=600, so that should explain it.

589 guests? Are we being spidered by a search engine, maybe?

Yeah I keep getting "That forum is not available. Please try again later." error messages.

And my auto-login stopped working... (I didn't check the cookie out of laziness)
