I'm trying the backdoor now. I saw those were posted before the hacking incident, and thought they were just for connection problems and such. I assumed that if the site had been hacked they had taken over the whole site. And if it's just the homepage, why can't I get in through my bookmark for the forums? My bookmark never takes me to the homepage, just the forums, but it doesn't work since the hack.

And while we're on the subject, why on earth would someone hack a hair site?? I could see if it was some kind of political or activist site but we're just a bunch of women comparing shampoo for gosh sakes, lol.

Okay, YAY! the back door worked. I can calm down now.

Has anyone tried the links I posted?!?! The back door instructions may only work if you have Windows XP

Actually, the website isn't down, it's just the homepage. That's why many of us are using the "back door"
 
There are still a lot of us posting there

Thanks Dave. I'm a regualr visitor and sporatic poster at LHC. I had just hit 100 posts the other day and was excited I could finally look at the photo gallery.

My hair is in the growing out stages. It was just past BSL when I cut it off into a very short pixie. It's now down to just below my shoulders (when wet or when I straighten it, just touching my shoulders when I let it dry natural because it's very curly.)

I just hope they can get the site back soon Cry

Nice to "see" you here, cichlid/always_alone... based on your current measurement it would seem that your hair growth is coming along very well!

Welcome Amy87, would you like to tell us a little bit about yourself and your hair?

cichlid here...

Yeah, LHC was down all day. I have the forums link bookmarked. It confused me but when I typed in the main page only then did I see that it got hacked. The Beauty Bottle got hacked again as well. Cry

I may not have posted much lately in the forums there...but I've still been on the site quite a bit almost everyday.

This is driving me crazy, I love that forum and can spend hours just reading there. Is there any word on whether they are  working on getting it back up or a temporary meeting place for us members until things are straightened out?

It appears that the Domain Name Server entries for the site were corrupted (to point to a different IP address) by spygrup.org, which is registered in Turkey.  Website owner is named "Burak Kaya" and email address is bykruis@gmail.com with phone number 90.5367824223.  A criminal just waiting for arrest and prosecution...
