Someone with ip 12.230.84.121 thinks it's really funny trying to vandalise and hack our forum.

Therefore the search engine is temporarily disabled.

I suggest anyone who is a webmaster etc. to shut this ip nr down in the firewall to aviod problems.

This person is based to the SE of Chicago. I suggest you report them to:

Christ,

you hear more and more of this sort of thing.. what's the point.. it doesn't achieve anything..:mad:

Why can't they go back to watching day time tv and drinking warm beer :hmm:

i dont understand what motivates them either:mad:

if it is really a challenge that they want then try some

international security sight(or maybe their afraid they'll go to jail)

this forum has never done anything to them.

all this forum does is provide audi fans with great info:cheers:

:addict:
