Its Comcastic - or hacked, or under going maintenance

According to broadbandreports.com Comcast has been hacked. The portal is down. I use it to access webmail when at work to check on personal email. That is not working. I get some generic search page instead.

Probably not a good idea to log in to anything Comcast related until it looks to be back to normal.

My parents use Comcast homepage and were freaking out. I told them not to worry.

Good thing I moved out of their market. Comcast blows chunks.

Some highlights for those interested:
"...reported their email clients were redirected to the impostor address, prompting concern their login sequence could have been intercepted. Douglas said security people are still investigating."
