Yes, that's exactly what it is, but I just had to throw this out there. I was surfing about looking for benchtop sheet metal tools, when I clicked on a Google link that took me to cnczone.com. Well, that click almost took me there... until my anti-virus / site guard software (McAfee) redirected me and put up this rather scary page...
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
"cnczone.com may cause a breach of browser security.
Why were you redirected to this page? When we tested, this site attempted to make unauthorized changes to our test PC by exploiting a browser security vulnerability. This is a serious security threat which could lead to an infection of your PC. "
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Holy crap Shocked Well, I thought it was interesting anyway. Anyone remember a certain someone who will not be named who had a connection with CNCZone.com? The weirdness continues, apparently.

Considering how many sites are attacked by nefarious evildoers in order to spread their malware, it is not terribly surprising that a marginally maintained website would get hacked. I've seen mainstream news sites attempting to download trojans, and it's difficult to report and/or get fixed as very few commercial websites have a "contact the webmaster" option anymore.

Yup (i.e. "he who will not be named").

Okay, so when Scott wins the Lottery, he's going to:

* Take us all to lunch.
* Buy all the masks and production rights and have a semiconductor factory start production on CEM chips.
* Put a down payment on some California real estate.
* Buy a Tesla Roadster. You'll be about #1200, so you might have to bribe a Tesla employee or two to get an earlier spot in line... Wink

Tim,

It's uncanny - you've sussed my plans perfectly!

And now I have to go home and get a change of underwear after seeing that picture...damn you.

Cheerio,
Scott
