Pull the plug on it's internet connection. So external access won't see the site. Direct voom.com access to another webserver with the error message. Then work on the server. Voom's domain seems correct...the server's ip address also gives the same webpage (66.54.41.216). I run some web servers (if that matters). The message has been up for quite a while IMO...legit or not.danielle_s said:

This link doesn't work:
http://www.voom.com/my_voom/index.jsp
I usually use that to access my account. I'm guessing the is redirecting any static pages and directories to the message we're seeing.

Nope -- nothing unusual, anyway.riffjim4069 said:I am on business travel this week...did I miss anything?
You'll have to do post the code like this. But it is probably legit because the hacker took the original code and modified to what we're seeing.

It is not inconsistent...
Yesterday CVC's board voted not to sell the assets to Dolan Sr.
Memo goes out telling employees VOOM is shutting down and they should seek employment in other areas of CVC.
Today the web site is updated to notify the public that VOOM is no longer taking orders and is going to be shut down.
The only thing that is inconsistent is Dolan Sr's memo to employees that they were still working on it and hope to keep VOOM alive somehow... Dolan Sr was outvoted 2x by the board...

I see what you mean. It looks a bit...'fuzzy'. As thought it were originally intended to be at a different size...
Then again, maybe my eyes are just tired from reading all these posts...
