    I'd like to point out that on this occasion it's actually our host. It would appear there systems were hacked as opposed to any software we were running. In the short term they've suspended our account because someone cracked there systems and uploaded a phishing site.

    We're not very impressed and are pushing to have the site reinstated ASAP.

    UPDATE:

    Looking at NRG's site and there host this looks as though CPanel, the control panel they are using has been exploited. What was your hosts reason for closing your site PrivateSmokey and what software were you running the site off of?

    Not sure deconstruct,Scrapper aka Ro0t would have them details:)

    You would think the webhost would have enough security inplace to prevent this :confused:

    well yeah, you'd think so... but again we're probably looking at a backdoor/exploit in the control panels of the hosts that caused it...

    Are you having any luck with your webhost.
