Firefox and Chrome users may experience an error when accessing the site at the moment, saying the site is reported as an attack site. The website was compromised this morning and some malicious code was placed on some of the static pages on the site. Google picked up on that and blocked us. I've since cleaned up the malicious code, and changed all admin passwords as a precaution, but I'll be doing more work today.

The forum is unaffected, so you can safely ignore the browser warning if you wish.

This has prompted me to carry out some much needed updates though. So, this afternoon at about 12.30, the static pages on the site will be taken down until further notice. They will be back, on a fresh Wordpress installation (current one is quite out of date!). Once this is done, the next update due is on the forum itself. I'll be doing this tonight.

[size=200]The forum will be down most of this evening, starting at about 19:30 GMT[/size]

Sorted now by the looks of it.

Security issue is sorted, but the browser warning is still in place - Google haven't re-validated the site yet. I just tested it on another machine, warning still appears.

If you hit "Ignore this warning", you'll be fine

Hughie is try to hack our machines again......


Silly boy! I has firewallz! You can no hackz me!

Quite the opposite! trying to prevent nasty people doing stuff!

Doh! Just posted about your miss adventures with pics lol

Google have re-scanned the site and have approved us should be no more error when hitting the site in Firefox, Chrome or an Android browser

Probably not worthy of it's own thread and it might be just me but the forum doesn't seem to ping us an email anymore to say we have a new PM? It's always done this for me until a few days ago. Checked my junk folder too in case they'd got in there but nothing there either. Not a huge issue for me as I tend to check the forum fairly regularly but thought I'd mention it.

Simondo - I'm still getting them mate? I beleive this is a selection feature in your user control panel. Have you checked there dude?

Not sure then! Mine is still set to notify me which makes sense because I've never changed it! Could be a problem with Gmail then? Sort it out Hughie!

hi i am still trying to be a gold member but none of the pages are working not the gold membership page or the shop page just letting you know

Still getting emails here Simon, probably Gmail putting them in a spam filter, I'm making some tweaks soon so hopefully that will improve

Thanks Doug, yep the pages are disabled for the moment while we transfer things over, please bear with us

no problem thought i would just let you know was all
