To say the web pages are "compromised" normally suggests the site was 
hacked, and intruders have control of it.  I haven't seen anything like 
that.

What evidence have you seen of that?

Or did you mean to write something else?

A few of us have mentioned this almost daily.  Do you read the 
use-livecode list?

Of course not, as I've written before.  But since your strong opinions 
on this certainly aren't merely random bad manners, could you kindly 
share with us the benefit of your experience and let us know what you'd 
recommend they do?


 > I don't know what is going on

No argument here.  ;)

Seems a reasonable thing do to when faced with a DDoS attack.
