weirdness

Does anyone else have trouble with the Cascade Library site? I wanted to check something for fanlore and it didn't load right.

Right now for me sometimes pages load with the proper content, but sometimes some kind of weird spam site loads, with annoying links and I assume malicious Javascript. (I have NoScript on, and linux tends to have vulnerabilities different from Windows which is most commonly targeted by website hacks, so I don't know what it does to other computers.) Has skeeter63.org been hacked? I have the same problem with all the site's there, that sometimes they load okay and sometimes this crap loads. It might not be a good idea to go there right now if you don't have NoScript and adequate precautions enabled, but I'm wondering what is up with the domain.

It's not just you. There's a thread on the TSStoryFinders Y!Group about it. It seems to work fine for some, sometimes for some, and not at all for others. No explanations so far.

What were you looking for? It's working for me at the moment, so I could look it up for you, if that would help?

CL doesn't list awards, but... um, if you look at that pic of Alberte's Cascade Waystation geocities site on the fanlore article, you'll see the awards listed under the stories.

I can't swear it never did, or doesn't now, but if it does, I sure can't find it. *g*
