Now Who Did ANCAPEX Irk?

Presently, if you go to ANCAPEX.com, it takes you to VSTEX.net.

Of course, VSTEX could not have done this deed. They've issued a release that they are not responsible, but anyone who is into web programming knows that this sort of redirect comes from an Apache Server or .htaccess directive: In English, it's happening on the ANCAPEX.com site. Someone's irked.

Maybe it is simply payback for Ancapex advertising practices inworld.

Whatever it is, I must admit that I do need a new keyboard. There's coffee everywhere, and only after cleaning my monitor and shaking out the keyboard could I write this.

This has to be an inside job, or one heck of a cracker. I probably shouldn't be amused, but there is a certain poetic justice to this that I find... appealing?

Either way, it seems that stock exchanges just got a little more serious and amusing at the same time.

I imagine Intlibber Brautigan is less than happy. Unless he's the one who did it... after all, it's his Second Life name on the WHOIS information for the ANCAPEX.com site.

And no, I didn't do it. If I did, it would redirect to a porn site. And if it redirects to a porn site after this, it wasn't me. My IP address is quite easy to track should I do something naughty...
