Re: They DID Warn You
Probably the elites have some scam to have a bank "hacked", all our money goes missing but luckily they had moved their cash just before and coincidentally had some nice campaign donations just after.

can we please go to war now?

Did not affect all customers
Stop exaggerating the situation. Only a minority of the bank's customers were affected.

Hers the start of a very long url, [NoScript XSS] Sanitized suspicious request. Original URL [https://stags.bluekai.com/site/36828?ret=html&phint. Bluekai comes up as a virus on some pages on google. But then so do loads of innocent things, so anyone know for certain what they are?

Re: Problems not fully resolved?
Staff member just hit problems and his was DNS related, (specifically MS server DNS) nslookup for the domain he was after timed out. Linux DNS seemed OK.
Could be that had some bad DNS out there and it takes a while to recover.
I can't say for sure either DNS is correct but the MS servers to me seem slower to drop bad data.
