hi everyone.
We were subject to a massive DOS attack the past 2 days. While I was protecting us from it, we were hacked by some one in russia and we had some wild websites giong up. I am forced to recover the box and reload our backup. I should have us back up online in an hour or two.
I apologize for this, I am looking into how this happened. It looks like a web address I allowed in for testing which had a security issue.

Thanks AP! Defnitely way better support than my company's IT. Sorry it is taking longer. I had no idea it would take 12 hours to reformat our raid 1. I should of taking that into consideration. I should have us back up full backups restored by noon. I have identified where the loophole was. I had a legacy website which had a DNS pointer to it. The russian hacker found it and used it to gain entry. I have removed the DNS pointer to it, and will remove the website once the backup's are restored. I have backups for the game up to 10am yesterday. I apologize for any lost experience or items. AP

Just wanted to say big thanks to AP for taking the time to recover the box at the cost of his CCIE lab.
