During the last two days, August 9 & 10, there have been 3 attempts to hack our web site. Post Nuke reported these attempts to me at my secretary@byyb.org mail address. Post Nuke's server was able to successfully defeat the attacks.

We will re-double our security efforts to insure the safety of the content of our website & BBS. Part of that effort is to enforce the rules that the previous Executive Commitee enacted after the last, nearly fatal hacker attack in December 2005.
