    Forum running really slow?

    Not sure if it's just me but over the last week or so the forum has suddenly become really slow. Today it wouldn't load at all, eventually coming up with 'database error' then after an hr it came back, but still slow.

    Anyone else having any problems?

    I recieved the following from my service provider yesterday....


    Today your account (u-ukhbc.co.uk) suffered a hack attempt, focused on the exploit
    of your FTP account. The attacker/s used your FTP details to access your
    account and upload a malicious iframe that in turn linked to an external site
    hosting the following file:

    http://www3.ca.com/securityadvisor/v....aspx?id=36725

    We took immediate steps to identify and block the source of the attack. The
    file was removed and your standard index pages restored.
    Not very nice was it??

    All fixed now though

    Let me know how it seems. I can re-build the index file if needed, that should speed things up a bit.

    What a bunch of meanies!

    I've seen a lot worse though, one forum was wipped clean and replaced by some very nasty images of victims in the iraqi war! Not nice at all

    Seems to be working ok for me here at work...

    I'm back to not being able to access the site again at home though Paul...

    Strange as it's only this site that I can't access???

    So I'm still around, just not quite as often as I used to be...

    Ady.
