Database hacked?
Wtf is going on?? I'm receiving emails about gross surgical implants and stuff directed to me as spikylover and not as my real name. I thought this information is confidential? The only reason to spam companies having the email linked to my cactiguide account is that they have access to cactiguide database. Anyone else experienced this??

I use Sophos anti-virus, and when I got onto the forum on Saturday, it blocked a high-risk website called coin-have.com. Something must've infected the CactiGuide website (which I believe is hosted on the Cactus Mall web server), although the problem cleared up rather quickly.

It is. Daiv is working on taking cactiguide off that server due to the crazy amounts of bugs and problems.Steve Johnson wrote:which I believe is hosted on the Cactus Mall web server
