Seems to be resolving to Eastern European car sales web site. Anyone in touch with Mark Suster?

He's been having some trouble in general over the last few days / weeks. I'm guessing he's aware of it, but I don't know that he's totally sure how to best deal with it.

(By "trouble" I mean "issues with spammers / hackers.")

It's definitely being redirected at the webserver rather than at the DNS

   curl -i -H "Host: bothsidesofthetable.com" http://174.143.45.97

The target site also hosts malware. Was the victim site running a wordpress blog?

manually adding www. seems to solve the problem for most links

I got the same thing this morning and multiple times this afternoon at Both Sides. I @mentioned it to him on Twitter, but never heard back. Hope he is aware of it though.
