anyone else have a problem accessing LOD yesterday? Whenever I tried all that came up was a homepage that looked like ours but all it had were 4 links to car insurance websites.

I didn't, but I only checked in a couple of times.

If you haven't yet, you should probably run Malware bytes. (or similar) on your home computer. Just in case it is your own computer's DNS that is compromised.

http://www.malwarebytes.org/
(the free version is all you need.)

Right now I am accessing through my work web server from home with no issues. I just tried logging off that and accessing through only comcast. The problem still exists. Ever see that?

I have. Usually spyware on a computer, but it could be on the internet or ISP (comcast) side as well. What address are you going to? I know we have a couple.

maybe I did nto do it right. It identified 1700 errors, but would only fix 100 unless I purchased the full version.

From my Comcast account at home, if I open a command prompt and ping www.mark8.org or www.lincolnsofdistinction.org, it resolves to 50.22.10.205 - or 50.22.10.205-static.reverse.softlayer.com, which appears to be correct. I receive the same response here at work, as well.

My assumption is that from your own home account, you may get something different. Let "MBAM" do its thing, and let me know. :D

I think what happened is I clicked one of the numerous banner adds that said click here to download. I ended up searching malwarebytes and went to their website. I kept getting directed to an "ARO" download for something similiar.

I downloaeded and it worked as it should. Did not make a difference although it did remove a few items. I just used the link that I found that works. Do the other 2 work ok for anyone?

My autologger goes through the\vbul address and no problem. If I use that link you left in the thread, it goes to some insurance co in england!!! That needs to be fixed!!!!

FYI...

I don't think it's a hack, the flash page doesn't appear to be working.

I'll get Mike P and Vistitude alerted.
