Khmer440 Hacked?

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Yeah, looked like they're just catching up to the 21st century and trying to install an SSL certificate (httpS), that's all.

The self appointed expat intelligentsia of Cambodia sure do run a shit show of a website. I logged on recently and had to wipe the cobwebs off my screen.

So, they're (finally!) trying to create a SSL-certificate? If you prepare such a change right, the actual implementation should not take more than a few minutes.

Also, site upgrades or maintenance tasks are usually done when traffic is lowest, so after midnight. But, thinking about it, there's probably not a whole lot of difference in traffic on TOF.

It’s been a great resource for many over the years and we’re lucky to still have it. I hope it returns soon, and better than ever!
