NBC.com has been hacked

[Jammers]

I just went (or tried to go) on to NBC.com to watch Friday's episode and I got a message saying "NBC.com has been temporarily blocked as the website has been compromised and appears to be serving malicious content". YIKES!
Found a story about what is going on: http://money.cnn.com/2013/02/22/technology/security/nbc-com-hacked-malware/index.html

You can probably watch on youtube........but boy, that is something else. Their entire site is down???

 

[Jammers]

I don't know if their site is down or if my company just placed a block on the site because it was hacked. I did not get my normal "ATTENTION you cannont go on this site" message.

I have the episode recorded a home, but since I was not busy here, I thought I would watch it....but I cannot watch on Hulu or Youtube from this computer.

Well, there goes my Hulu suggestion!

They were hacked in Nov. I wonder why they didn't put in better security.

The Days site is up and the preview is there

Evidently different hackers or same hackers using different method. The explanation on the CNN site is very informative.

It says if you were went to their site, you might have caught a "virus"
I wonder what if people who went to NBC are supposed to do something next.

Maybe Wayne can tell us.
