Hang in there Don ... when you get time, shoot me a PM on what happened so we can be sure we don't have an open window here.  Thanks

Good luck

Since, as being Don's host, I am also at the receiving end of this, I sent you a PM too ;-)

We'll build an entirely new site, so stay tuned for more !

Good luck with getting it back up. What a stupid, random thing to do to hack your site.

Francois,
I wonder if Don's site was the actual target or perhaps the 'afterbirth' was trying to get some 'freebies' from FS Addon and managed to take down the wrong site?

Glad your helping Don to reestablish his site.

Hi all. As Francois stated, we are working (actually HE is doing most of the work right now!!) on getting her back up and running asap. I cannot put a time or date on the return of Bushpounder's, but it will be soon. :) I am having withdrawls already!! I appreciate the friendship here at Misty's for allowing me to post our progress. Things work so much better when people work together!

Back in business! Site is open once again. People must register and be approved. More work to be done, but at least the bar is open!! :)

Thanks Doug, et al, for allowing me to post my updates here. The Bushpounder community appreciates it.

I tried registering 7 ot 8 times, entering the maths sum and code each time, but I keep getting "User registration is currently not allowed".

Hi Graham. A liitle glitch out of the gate! It is just a setting holding it back. It is being reviewed as I write this. Sorry! All these little bugs will go away!! Thanks for your patience!! :)

Don,
not working for me.  I get the message:

Unable to establish connection to my SQL
1045: Access denied for user 'bushpoun'@'local host' (using password: NO)

OOPS!! Nevermind tried the plain bushpounder.com URL and I get the site.

April's brainfart came early this month.

Bushpounders is back.  I registered just fine, despite all the math questions.  (I'm glad they're single digit problems, or I'd have to whip out the calculator.)  I look forward to checking out the site more as it gets back on it's feet.  Welcome back.
