Observe CAUTION  when entering the TCI library!

It's been hacked and an Arabic type of webpage has taken its place. I don't know if anything malicious is attached to it or not

The TCI Library seems to be a favorite for hackers.  Fortunately, they've been content to replace the home page so far.  The admins are getting good at restoring it.

When this happens, please report it to:

Paul -

Is the site safe yet? If not, will let us know when it is back?

I believe all is well with the Library.  The only problem we found so far this time is the home page, and it has been restored.

The administrators have been impacted by travel schedules and power outages due to Hurricane Sandy, so haven't been on as much as usual.  We rely on user reports to help us find problem areas. Volunteers are always welcome to help us with ongoing Library expansion and improvement projects.  Email me to sign up.

As always, please report any suspicious behavior on the TCI Library site to repository@telephonecollectors.info

Messages sent there go directly into the administrators' in boxes, and are the fastest way to get our attention.

The web site managers are working with our host and are evaluating stronger security measures to hopefully stop a greater percentage of these attacks in the future.
