Gotmatrix down again?

[mikv]

This is probably the wrong place for this post so it can be moved if so.....Is anybody else getting a "download" prompt when trying to view Gotmatrix??? When I type in the URL I don't get the site, I get a popup box that asks me if I want to "download" a file called gotmatrix but it doesn't give the file type. I think it's a virus so I'm not gonna download it....Did the site get hacked??

Thats very weird, that same thing happened here on MatrixWatch last night, and it just went away for whatever reason and started acting normal again ........

I moved the thread for your Mikv...

To reiterate what Jokach said, it is very weird that the Gotmatrix site is doing EXACTLY what MW was doing over night.

-Merc

P.S. It isn't a virus. The hosting web server isn't executing PHP, and thus the browser doesn't know what to do with the php file it is given. By default, with any unknown file type, your browser will ask what to do with it.

Is gotmatrix down? :confused:

good question, I can't access it myself, nor does it resolve in DNS at this time.

Doing a whois, it appears the domain information changed on 2/11/05 back to got-host.com. If you specifically query ns1.got-host.com (which is back again as well), you'll see it resolves to 67.18.249.66, type that ip in your browser and there is no website configured ...... it probably needs to propagate across the internet yet.

Maybe he's moving things around again ............. we'll have to keep an eye out ...
