Guys, this is getting crazy! The TXCDL site has TWICE been hacked. I just checked it and it was down. Apparently it was "Hacked by LatinHackTeam." I wonder why they are getting hit so hard and what can be done to stop it?

This is making me crazy. Our web guys are working on it. I don't know why we are such a target but somebody doesn't want us on the web. Please bear with us.

Thanks a lot.

They are not targeting you they are just defacing all sites that have that vulnerability.

Yea, it is almost to the point of no longer even bothering with the site anymore and that isa shame because I have been a member for some time now.

Looks like they let the domain name expire then re upped it today, It will take about 4-24 hours for the DNS servers to update.

I think Gary probably got tired of messing with it. Heck, he seldom posted and never said anything about the billboards or taxi ads. I'll never go back. Deleted my links in favorites.

The website is totally gone, now there is some garbage website with lots of links for a lot of different garbage so I highly doubt that the website is ever coming back unless it is coming back with a new webaddress.

For Texas there is always www.texasguntalk.com and it seems to be pretty active.

Just too bad to see the website gone.

Like RB said, Gary seemed to lose interest once the realization that regaining OC in Texas would require more than just starting a website. OCDO.COM has done more for us than our so called grass roots organization ever did.
