Website was spammed and attacked
« on: April 24, 2017, 07:42:55 PM »
As'salamu Alaikum dear brothers and sisters in Islam,

Some weasels, not sure if they're random hackers/spammers or specifically targeting this website, have attacked this website.  I am working with my web hosting company to install the anti-spam plug-ins to prevent further attacks.

Insha'Allah, we'll work through this and come out successful as always.  I apologize for the inconvenience.

Take care,
Osama Abdallah

As'salamu Alaikum dear brothers and sisters in Islam,

Despite that I also have unlimited bandwidth for the website, but somehow IE browser said: Exceeded maximum allocated bandwidth.  Anyway, it is all fixed now, insha'Allah.  What doesn't break you MAKES YOU!  I have learned a lot from this latest ordeal.  Heavy mail spamming from my website, overloading, and who knows what else.  LOL.  Quite colorful :).

Insha'Allah, it is fixed now.  I have just installed the latest and greatest anti-spamming tool SMF (this forum's programmers) offers.  So we'll see how this goes insha'Allah.

Sorry again for the inconvenience.  It's been quite hectic this week because of this.

Take care,
Osama Abdallah

Salaamu Alaikum,

I'm glad that Answering-Christianity is working again!

Gee, probably anti-Muslim hackers attacked this website because they don't want to see the truth about Christianity.

Peace,

Albarra (Riyadh, KSA)

Assalamun alaikum

Alhamdullillah the site is back finally.  Most probably some anti Islamic people must have some that.

I think brother Osama you should redesign this site like wiki style or maybe some better because stuff on this site are scattered and not easily accessible
