Default Turnpoint Exchange Web Site Highjacked?

I just tried to go to John Leibacher's http://soaring.aerobatics.ws/
turn point exchange web site and all I get is some sort of bogus get
rich quick scheme.

What's up with that? John not pay his ISP bill? Let's hope that all
those files aren't toast.

It's not the only site that it's happening to. If you go to the SRA
site http://sailplane-racing.org/
and click on Pilot Rankings you get some financial ad.

It appears that the mirror sites for the main turn point web site are
still ok.

http://soaring.gahsys.com/TP/

Whew!

On the positive side, the bogus ads LOOK GREAT!

Looks like http://sailplane-racing.org/ is back up.
