    All-

    Hopefully this will be the last word regarding kievonline so we can get
    back to discussing Full Disclosure, and not annoying spam... Recently
    updated at the site <http://www:kievonline.org>...

    Dear Visitor;

    If you came to this website because you received a SPAM and/or a hate
    e-mail from admin@kievonline.org  please read the following
    announcement:

     

    To Whom It May Concern;

    In recent days, we have been attacked by individuals who hacked or
    used some type of program(s) which sent out an unknown amount of
    emails to many individuals and companies using our domain name
    (kievonline.org) with the above mentioned email address
    :(admin@kievonline.org) We do not have such an email address setup.

    Be advised, we at kievonline.org DID NOT send you this email, it did
    not get sent from our mail server, it got sent to you by these
    individuals who hacked or tried to hack into our server. Our hosting
    company notified us regarding these emails and together we decided to
    temporally disable this website.

    We regret and apologize to all of you whom have been harassed in any
    shape or form. Please forward the email to your ISP (Internet Service
    Provider) and they might be able to trace it from where it had
    originated.

    We have contacted the local authorities in the USA and abroad (we
    believe that these individuals are not from the USA). We have a trace
    of their IP addresses and other valuable information which will assist
    the authorities upon who we are dealing with.

    In closing we would like to comment that this website has been set up
    for the use of an online forum (bulletin board) for students of the
    Kiev School as a tool to keep in touch (general chat). This website and
    its members have not and will not have acted in such a terrible manner.

    PS We hope to have this forum up in running in the near future.

    Yours truly,

    M.A.

    Administrator
