1. I'll ask Elad to check it out. Because that is way over my head.

FWIW, We are working with our ISP to scrap our antiquated server setup and move into something new. It's a big job and it will take a while. But we are working on it!

Finally admitting the DUmp is a DUmp.

Skimmer should consult with crazy JimRob.

Maybe they can trade servers.

Antiquated doesn't even begin to describe DU's hardware (and underlying software). I really don't know why it doesn't crash several times a day and I wouldn't be surprised to learn that the server software has been exploited years ago.

I can only suppose the reason it hasn't been taken down is because most hackers support Democrats.

The member list and their email addresses have been exploited.  Skammer has sold them many times over to the DNC, HillPac and any other organization that will buy it.

Maybe the hackers who exploited it keep it afloat to keep their foot in the door.

Quite possibly.

Keep quiet, keep collecting data..
