    Default Can it get any more messed up???

    Probably thought this was about cave diving organizations, eh?

    Not so! www.sidemount.com has been taken over.

    I blame the backmounters!

    Why the hell would they hack that page? I guess it was because it was easy to do. Somewhere else I was trying to look at today got hacked but I can't remember what it was.

    It's not the years in your life that matter, but the life in your years.

    It's pretty bad that it is still up, their hosting people should have fixed it by now. Why would someone hack anything cave diving related? I hate it for Linda, she's a nice lady.

    Does anybody have a set of AOL floppy disks to help them get back online?

    As to why - I doubt it was targeted. More than likely someone is running a scan for a particular set of vulnerabilities and grabbing any site they find that are easy pickings...

    Edit: To avoid any misunderstandings my earlier ROFL comment was about the image the hackers put up, not about the folks whose site got hacked.

    This is disturbing. These guys can hack anything. It's only going to get worse though unfortunately.

    When I ran the call center for Hostcentric we had a white hat on staff that sole job was to hack our customers windows based websites, the Redhat ones didn't seem to need that service
