Hacker Sends College’s Search Traffic to Porn Site

PENDLETON, Ore. - Some people who used Google's search engine to access Blue Mountain Community College's website Monday were instead redirected to a porn site.

The college was remodeling its site and changing its URL when a hacker redirected a previous address to a porn site.

Jacque Talboy, the college's web coordinator, said the hacker did not get into the college's main site. However, she explained that people who hadn't rebooted their computers and used Google to get to the college's site got a surprise.

Talboy said Google reset its computers and directed search-engine users to the correct site.
