    Just tried contacting Dave via phone, and a woman answered who then tried to put me through to him, but she said he wasn't there.

    I explained to her that it appears the site has been hacked and wondered if they were aware, she didn't seem very concerned and said she will let him know tomorrow.

    Cheers Lee,

    We are onto this... it is only the front-end static index page and the network is hosted completely separately.

    It seems to have happened to all of our hosting companies servers, but I stress that the network software is hosted completely separately and is completely safe from this!

    You can still log in here:

    I would suggest getting your index page ASAP or renaming the Contact file to index.php

    Ok guys,

    We are still working on the homepage, etc, but as I have said, there is absolutely no need to worry about any details, etc as the network is hosted separately.

    Yep I believe you.

    Is it me or does firefox start wooshing around your screen? Real annoying!

    I knows it not the nicest thing to happen! Would hate it and might even lower business.

    Anyway, all sorted now.

    Once again, the network was not affected in anyway.
