The Haven was Hijacked!

The Haven's Forum was hacked and hijacked by an as of yet unknown individual for use attacking other sites. As soon as the attacks began, our host moved swiftly to disable the attacks by taking the site offline temporarily. It took a tag team effort to get the site online, but after many hours from Courtney and myself. The true hero in this is Courtney, who even went so far as to install individually needed files and pour through code to restore everything to working order.

At this time I recommend that EVERYONE should do a couple things for their own protection. First, we strongly recommend that everyone performs a series of scans on their computer for viruses, worms, adaware, and malware. The following links are to FREE programs we recommend using if you don't already have security software. It is also recommended that you change your password.

Anyway, we're now back up and running ont he latest release version of our Forum software. Since we had no time to test this version, please let me know if you find any oddities in function, such as a topic or attachment that won't load or if for some reason you have trouble logging in. Please remember to describe the incident and link to the problem page if possible. All information about a site technical issue should be sent to my email, This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..

Again, BIG hugs for Courtney people!

Toodles,

Rachel :)
