Dear All, Unfortunately, the main www.asoldasthehills.org site has been attacked by a malicious party in China, and has been modified in various nefarious ways, including the addition of automatic hidden links to sites with malware. This happened also in March, and we thought we'd cleaned it out by a days' wading through the files, and changing passwords. Unfortunately it seems to be back, albeit in a less severe form, so the hacker mu+st have left a back door. We've had to take it down for the moment while we locate their way in and close the door, as well as making sure that we've removed all their alterations. Please bear with us, and hopefully it will be back online shortly! Joe

We're back up, and I think we've solved the problem - they were getting in through an additional ftp account. However, if anyone notices anything strange or suspicious (if you get annoyed messages from your computer's virus checker or pop-up blocker, for example!) , please let us know straight away, and we'll get an expert in to sort it out once and for all. But as I say, we think there should be no more problems... Fingers crossed...
