It seems like a well planned event, hitting a high traffic domain on a long weekend. They can install toolbars at will until Tuesday.
To my mind it seems like something someone may have been working on for a while.
You have my real sympathy with this Sleazy, this is one of my nightmares made real.
I'm very curious how they did it. If the domain wasn't locked they would have to know your email, but if it was locked they would have to know the email and the Registrar password. Have you checked your machine for key loggers or any other trojans? They may have been able to pull and then decrypt your stored password file, then they would have been able to get them all at once.
Im pretty sure he got sleazy's passwords when he was previously hacked.
When the hun was hacked by the same guy he had the hun's passwords for everything, so if his email had the same password , he prob just waited till the right time.
You need to contact Icann, and open a dispute ticket, you may also need to go through an arbitration service, you also need to get in touch with the current registrar!
Let me know how it goes for you! you need to make sure you have your domains "Locked" with the current registrar!
that is vry fucked up.
I would sue the registrar. The new one and the old one, if you were sure that you had it locked down.
Talk to an attorney. May be there is legal help after all.

So they are hacking home boxes? I didn't hear about the previous hack.
can't claim that I "did" it for legal reasons, but it should either DDOS out or atleast run out of B/W allotted on the hosting plan soon, which should have the account suspended. so either way, it'll go down, ev1 will notice and respond to your emails promptly im sure.
In addition the link lead to a gallery...not stats.
Yes i think thats fairly clear since i pointed that out above..
look at that thru google and you will get the real page..
sleazy that registrar is fucked.. the one the hacker has it on now doesn't even appear to be a real registrar , plus its asking for webmasters to put this on their website
now register as a new webmaster. once your in the webmaster zone they have a box for you to add any domain you want to your account to add the spyware to
Clearly this was a criminal act, I'd be contacting the FBI and making sure all involved parties got the message. The word also needs to be gotten out to other major tech news sites as it seems the new ICANN policy may have made this hacker's job easier.
Does Sleazydream have ICQ or anything? (tried to send him some info, privately, but doesn't seem to be logged in) No need to clue in potential hijackers reading this board.
I buy good domain names. Send lists to George (at) LOFFS.com
Jesus Christ don't click any links posted in this thread.
WTF? I feel sorry for anyone without virus protection and on IE still.
Well...as I stated...I clicked the one link and was warned of several different viruses. I am now running my virus scanner to make sure they are all taken care of and this process will take a couple of hours.
When you're running down my country hoss...you're walking on the fighting side of me!

The host and registrar have to be assuming some major liability leaving a site like that up. If bulk spam can send people to prison for a decade then surely installing that bullshit on thousands of PCs can too.

I had to shut down Firefox even. Fucking cock suckers. These guys should be taken out to the ocean and dumped for shark food.
for all of you FUCKING idiots ICQing me, I had nothing to fucking do with this shit...
Sleazy and I had our spat, but I would never do anything like this AT ALL
Sleazy, I hope you get this taken care of, it's some fucked up shit
I spoke to my buddy who has some domains with them and he only had the numbers already given in this and the other thread
i honestly don't believe you had anything to do with this
This dog, is dog, a dog, good dog, way dog, to dog, keep dog, an dog, idiot dog, busy dog, for dog, 20 dog, seconds dog!
This is why I don't fuck or play around with people on the boards ect..
You never know who they are
are you a complete and total fucking idiot?
few people knew i owned that url. they hit several other major gallery urls as well at the same time not owned by me. GFY had nothing to do with it - they went after traffic, pure and simple.

icq : 294518867 .. hope it helps.
ev1 doesn't want to do anything. i don't think they will run out of bandwidth - this was obviously planned and prepared for

Motherfucker, should of scrolled down and read this first. Thanks for the warning Smokey.
Sorry but if you are getting trojans from that your not protected , yu shouldnt be running i.e. with no patches as if you are your bound to get much worse things than that..
Those exploits are geared towards an affiliate program so they have to be very flexible..
updated i.e. shouldnt get anything from those pages.. ( you might get alerts from your virus protection programs but they wouldnt work anyways )
You just can't help yourself can you?
Wonder why we we cancelled advertising on your site not once but twice?
Like I said that's why I don't fuck with people on the boards.
Your attitude here can effect your business and your bottom line,
Like you are learning the hardway today
when did I EVER fuck with choker's business? Personally i think HE's an ASS, and he has his own opinions of me and my business that i don't agree with but I never once said there was a problem with his biz to my knowledge. I regurally endorse it as a great option to buy traffic from on here and to friends and associates.
ok, yes - i DID catch pichunter sending me hitbot traffic - mind you it was years ago......i suppose that did effect him, but he was cheating me. And I won't do business with him.

excuse me FUCK FACE? please tell me dumbass who's business I've EVER fucked with?
I'm sorry for your unfortunate hijack. All I tried to point out, is that karma is a whore. That's all. You love to put yourself in the spotlight wherever you go, whatever you do - and your attitudes come right with you. Maybe you've just called the wrong person an "idiot". Who knows.
Besides, if you are pushing millions of uniques a day across your visible domains, you better damned make sure you lock your anus down like Fort Knox would only do. And if you don't know how to do it (since you're a "marketer"), you damn better damn well have people who can do it for you.
Exposure and availability will always make you more susceptible to attacks and exploits of some sort.

thought i saw you saying shit about chokers traffic before.
I could be wrong.
I wont get into the pichunter thing proving hitbot traffic is not easy and not everyone will just take your word for it.
Plus many sites have been sent hitbot traffic that got passed along so its possible to get fake traffic in reality from allmost anyone nowdays
1. lawsuit will do you nothing
2. id kiss so much ass at dotster its not even funny..till you get your domain..
3. move it to directnic asap. they are the best by far. I had a domain taken and had it back within minutes. thats right..minutes.
Honestly, ev1 probably cant legally do anything, unless they investigate who is hosting and find that the guy is using phoney info to even get hosted.
I think your probably screwed till Monday. And I dont think an attorney will get you back on any quicker than you can.
I hate to sound like a sourpuss but I think that is the reality you are facing. I would hold off on an attorney till monday afternoon after having talked to dotster on monday am.. remember that once you mention lawsuits and lawyers, people stop helping.
I have about 15 servers at ev1, if I thought it would help I would contact them, but in reality they will want proof or tell you that your battle is dotster. adware isnt illegal, but spam complaints may get him pulled which may not be a bad idea, flooding ev1 with phoney spam complaints would get him pulled.
it totally sucks but im just trying to give you the honest opinion and tomorrow will seem like one of the longer days youll have...i would take krl's info and go that route asap.
