AAMDC Website Trouble
Over the past couple of weeks we have
experienced difficulty with our website
(www.aamdc.com). We have unfortunately been
receiving unwanted attention from an
international hacker, which has even
intrigued local media . Luckily, there has been no
serious damage to our files or online data;
however, we have been forced to take the
website offline while our IT support team works
toward making necessary software upgrades. It is
important that you, our members, understand that
we certainly know how this is very inconvenient
for those trying to retrieve information and register
for the upcoming Spring 2013 Convention and
Trade Show. We hope to be back online very
soon, but in the meantime, please take
advantage of the links provided in this newsletter
to participate in convention. Save the Date!
