Anyone know what happened to InsightCentral.net? Appears they're on a temporary hiatus? Curious, as they haven't updated in a long while and I thought it was going down the tubes...

There was some discussion that it had been hacked and it is down for security updates.

Hi All:

___Yes, the main page was hacked/diverted as well as the server being compromised. Some of the Insightcentral.net mods were passing on info on this saying the site would be down for a few days just before it went down and will be back after a move to a new server? I suspect that a lot of posts will be lost as did the Insight database the last time this happened about 6 + months ago

___Good Luck

Posts shouldn't be lost as long as they backup often. I download the GreenHybrid databases every few days.

Hi Jason:

___For whatever reason, the last time Insightcentral.net’s server was hit, it lost quite a few including its Insight Mileage Database. It was far cruder then what you have created but it had a ton of Insight’s posted and unfortunately, they are now gone forever

___By the way, Yves (one of the mod’s over there) posted in the Yahoo-Honda-Hybrid group that it is back up in a limited fashion but no forum or home page shows just yet. Hopefully within the hour or so, they will be back …

___Good Luck

Is it gone? or is it REALLY gone?
Hocus Pocus

I wonder if they'd let me add that to the database...

Hi Jason:

___I’ll be ****ed! It isn’t the final as I was in the one that was axed in July or so of this year but from 05/2003, it has quite a few of those Insight’s that were deleted.

___When they are back up, I will link your archived page to see if Benjamin will place it back in?

___Good Luck

Sounds good. If not, I can perhaps find a way to add it to our database.
