Infrogames hacked??
I tried to go to the infrogames website to get their email address.
I pressed Ctrl-O and put in " infrogames.com " Normally this would bring up the site but it brought up a Korean adult site??
I thought maybe they just used http://infrogames.com to get more innocent surfers. So I put a www in front of infrogames and came up with the same thing?? Has infrogames been hacked does anyone know? Unhappy citizens?

If Infogrames was hacked, it'd be a German site, with a translated version of Civ3 to download...

If anybody needs me to translate that site for them, I'd be glad to look for any hidden references to Civ3.

And it's a FRENCH game company, at that!
And yes, I have also typed in the wrong URL.

No they weren't hacked. I just looked at my civ3 box. Putting the r there looks weirder then before.
Why not Infogames??
Infogrames??

No... the correct site is http://www.infogrames.com. If you go to http://www.infrogrames.com, you get "something different"  , and that's why Darkknight thought they were hacked.

Dinnae be silly. The real address is infogrames (which is ok), the dodgy address is infrogames (the Korean site). No hacking in sight.

I had a hunch and I looked up grame in an english dictionary and here is the definition :
grame \Grame\, n. [See Gram, a.] 1. Anger; wrath; scorn. [Obs.] --Chaucer.
2. Sorrow; grief; misery. [Obs.] --Chaucer
Appropriate for Infogrames, don't you think?
