Korgscrew Group: Super Admins Posts: 3511 Joined: Dec. 1999 Posted: Mar. 19 2008, 09:15 Yes - it's a rather complex problem, to do with some recent compromises in security on the server (basically the account's been disabled, which is why you're seeing that holding page - getting it reactivated is the complex part). Things were left in rather a mess when it was transferred from Mike and Fanny to Universal, which is essentially what's led to this. It'll be reactivated as soon as possible - we're helping them to resolve the problem. Back to top

Hope they manage to sort it out soon. -------------- "I say I say I say I say, what's got three bottles and five eyes and no legs and two wheels" Back to top

Maybe it's down for maintenance. -------------- We raise our voices in the night Crying to heaven And will our voices be heard Or will they break Like the wind Back to top

Korgscrew Group: Super Admins Posts: 3511 Joined: Dec. 1999 Posted: Mar. 19 2008, 13:32 I don't see where the big mystery is - I already said why it's down! I'll put it more clearly: it got hacked so the host disabled it to stop the hackers' activities doing too much damage. The account has been re-enabled, with Tim's help, and it's been back in the hands of Universal's designers since early this afternoon. It has to be re-secured before it goes back online, which shouldn't take as long as it has... Back to top
