HACKER UPDATE: I'm working hard on this server issue. We're narrowing it
down! Thankfully my brother has come to the rescue but even he (a
network admin) is perplexed at how this guy is hacking the server.

Thanks everyone for the calls and emails! I appreciate it! The BIG 4963g
stone and the Canyon Diablo is SOLD. Thanks! Still have the achondrites
and 543.7g lot of NWA 1794...

Once we figure this out I will post the results of the exploit/hack that
is being used against me right now so other will not have to face the
same infuriating frustration that I'm going through right now.

Again, if you know of anyone, a software program, or anything that could
help (besides a good strong drink) I'd appreciate any help I can get!

Regards,
Eric
