JJK Russian hackers were trying to overload the Forum server --- down to 0 , so you gotta get rid of these guys 1st to restore normal traffic , otherwise it grinds the forum down to a halt , plus there was an update of the Forum software , so securing the database , and then a transfer to new hardware and larger data capacity - Administrators 2k Location: Klipsch HQ, Indy Administrators Posted Monday at 11:03 AM The main issue is we are getting a ton of traffic from over 1000 Russian IP addresses, probably trying to DDOS the site. I'm attempting to mitigate. Step one was upgrading the forum software which was about 2 years overdue. Obviously there is more to do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
