The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
so apparently as part of russia's cyber attacks they are embedding code on legit places that look like adds
for instance you could go to foxnews.com and see an add asking you to help ukranienians by watching this video. first seeing a video like that on foxnews.com should be your first warning sign
secondly you do not even have to click the ad/link to be infected. you can just move your mouse over the ad/link and that will let them get your password and then on to your more personal stuff
be careful out there kids
