Okay for those of you trying to post in the forums there appears to be a problem. I have made the Boss aware of this so hopefully the issue will be resolved soon………unless he makes it worse!

Mal-gate 2010 UPDATE!
Gang,
As of now it looks like the site might be clean again. Some behind the scenes work between JBL staff and the good folks at GoDaddy seems to have paid off.
If anyone experiences any problems, please contact me IMMEDIATELY. Otherwise, it looks like the site survived this latest debacle more or less intact.
I appreciate everyone’s patience and patronage. You guys really are the best group of Joe fans out there!

HACKED!!!
Gang,
UPDATE: It looks like we weren’t the only ones hit. GoDaddy and a few other hosting companies got nailed by what is being referred to as the “realsafe-23” trojan.
It is with more than a little anger and frustration that I have to report that JBL has been hacked and a malicious trojan has been installed. DO NOT access the site right now until the all-clear has been sounded. Keep an eye on the Facebook page and Twitter feed for more information as to when the all clear has been sounded. The hack seems to have affected both the site and the forums.
Do NOT install ANYTHING that pops up– nor follow any instructions that appear to come from your computer or anti-virus. Close out of your browser immediately.
I’m sorry for this inconvenience. I can’t imagine why anyone would want to attack a site dedicated to a toy line in this fashion.

2009 Collector’s Convention coverage page launched!
2009 Collector's Convention
I admit– it’s not the most polished page ever but I’ve put up a page to house the coverage of the 2009 Collector’s Convention in Kansas City. I’ll be adding photos and items throughout the weekend as will other JBL staffers so check back early and often as things get underway here in “The Land of Barbecue”! (The food, not the firefighter.)
JBL is on Facebook!
It had to happen sooner or later– JBL is now on Facebook, the social networking mega-site. If you’d like to stop on by and become a “fan”, use the button below.
