It wasnt because they did anything wrong.

It was DDoS which can bring pretty much site down.

Im hoping they upgrade security to prevent this

Is this site and 6 speed tied together?? Both were down and now have the same apology

I was wondering what the connection could be, but then, being the conspiracy theorist I am, could be a hacker that would also vandalize cars like ours....just a thought!

+1 here too, however I did spend too much time trying to figure out what was wrong with MY computer!

I had my ISP (RR) check it out and when they couldn't get in on either site, I knew then it was some viral nonsense!

Tied together? I guess you could say that.

More like hog-tied together. Read 'em an' weep: http://www.internetbrands.com/autonetwork

What makes matters worse is they gobbled up the maker of the software that runs these forums -- Jelsoft, an English company no more -- and so their reach and control is beyond these automotive sites, inasmuch as their corporate skills, or lack thereof, impact all their customers.

i'm here to talk and learn about porsche and cars - and all the ding dong opionions that are associated with that - including my own ding dong opinions.

it's clear though, that the IB strategy is not without controversy
