Michaelmoore.com and Thismodernworld.com Hacked

[Taverner]

Someone hacked both these sites, MM takes you to Fark.com and Thismodernworld takes you somewhere else entirely.

1. moore's site looks ok

2. Are you it isn't a DNS issue?

http://www.thismodernworld.com works fine for me as well as www.michaelmoore.com

If Qwest is your ISP - be advised they are updating their DNS servers this month.

3. Not for me -- just checked them both

It might be a DNS hack. Depending on which DNS server they hacked, it's likely that it would only affect a portion of the net (unless they get at a DNS root server -- or the site's own 'authoritative DNS').

But this idiot has posted this crap all over DU.

Good on you, Rezmutt for letting everyone know.
