Maybe it had something to do with the amount of pictures people were churning out? Bah, it eludes me, but good luck Iain. I hope not because I have seen many more images from larger 'free' sites get away with that. I have responded to them asking them to take care of the affected problem lets see if I come back on this year...

Well I guess that's good for me knowing that my computer wasn't being stubborn. I thought that my computer was joining the war against me, like my CD rom did. It won...

Say, do you think this site has a life of its own? It really wants the attention and members and wants to be used - so it sent a virus to try to disrupt the other site. Then when that didn't work it now attacks the server Or perhaps i've watched too many sci-fi movies recently

(Sigh) I seem to be cursed with this phpBB site really, less than a week after getting it back I get this response from my host. I have told them to remove any vulnerable tools they find, but frankly I have no idea what they are talking about, I have seen other boards like mineget away with so much more.
I wonder if some of the site avertising was causing this problem?

Whatever the problem, I sure hope they hurry and fix it. I personally am quite angry with these people for not being a little more specific as to what the issue really was. It seems that they specified two seperate cases. And obviously the people handling your case Iain, have no clue what Customer Support is. I work in the Customer Support department and I know that when addressing any concern or question, you need to be as specific as possible otherwise you just aren't doing your job correctly. The nerves.... I hope that you'll get the site up sometime today or tomorrow, i'm really looking forward to the old layout and working in my threads.

Thats the way I feel lately too, I no longer have my own favourite place I always wanted, all I can do is wait untill my host gets around to at least answering my last email.

And I just thought that it was computer problems... I wonder what the "vulnerable tools" were.... I'd like to know that myself, my website was virtually untouched save for a few templates uploaded to my forum there. I hope to have a suitible response from my host on Monday.

Let's hope it's back up soon. Some of us need a website to go to when we got on the computer, lol. Oh well, I'm sure everything will be fine, eventually. Now all we need is it to come back up and another virus hit it.
