Server 2 down due to abuse issue (05-10-2006)

 


Bondings
The server was apparantly involved in an abuse issue and was shut down or at least the ips were blocked. The problem is that the abuse department isn't working at the moment (not 24/7) so it will take at least a few hours to resolve this.

I don't know what the exact reason is as of yet. Most likely it's a spamming/phishing issue or someone (competitor/banned member) trying to purposely hurt Frihost by harming the servers.

I'll update you when I get more news about this.

My apologies for the inconvenience. Sad

The server was connected again and is already working fine for quite some time now.

The issue was due to a phishing website on the server trying to steal the passwords of the customers of an online bank in the UK.
