StanJames is hacked ?
I try to go to StanJames today, but I can't.
Try to Ping Stanjames, i got this:

WTF, the DNS server is saying that my computer (127.0.0.1) is Stanjames server. I then try to flush my DNS, edit my hosts file, doing stuff that an average network admin would do and try to go to StanJames site again....still the same thing. Hmmm, this is interesting.
To verify that it is not my ISP that having a wrong DNS entry, I try this online tool:
Lo and behold, this is what i got:

It is so clear that somebody has hijacked/poisoned stanjames DNS
server and put in the wrong IP address (127.0.0.1).
THe bottom line is I can't do some live bets today. I don't know when will they fix it but this is very interesting.
