Couple of other diesel sites are down too - wonder if it's the same thing.

Missed that but Built With Blood has the same 404 page not found error this site had and Colorado Diesel Truck Club says down for maintenance after it had the error message

it was some hole in vbulletin. when crowz went to get support info, vbulletin was covered in virus. we could have put it back up immediately, but that would have been a band aid , so crowx spent the time reverse engineering the hack. i'm not sure that we found anything concrete, just that it did not come thru our server. any other sites that were down, we most likely other vbulletin sits affected. i dont believe comp-d got touched.

I know I made at least one post today (long, with a link/quote..of course. :doh

, but now it's gone.

Is it lost forever, or will it be restored?

Thanks crowz!

JrStroker · Oct 14, 2013

Agreed. Thanks all!

Your welcome. It was a flaw in the chat software that did most of the stuff. As you can see chat went bye bye since there is no known fix for the flaw in it.

It might not have but I did get the 404 error when I attempted to log in via Firefox. Might've took it down to avoid a breach? It was up within 10 -15 minutes
