Queen_Sindel Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 The last post about this was still on the first page. http://showmastersonline.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=77810 As Jamie has already said, this is being worked on. Unfortunately sometimes it takes longer than expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murph Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Website might be down but you can still go directly to the shop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen_Sindel Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 I've reminded the office that the store was giving the warning too. Thanks for pointing that out, Murph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lams9999 Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 I had not the warning for the store QS. I've just accessed it from the Coll Glasgow page but maybe the problem has been fixed first for the store? I did not try before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jael001 Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Sometimes it's not that easy to clean these things up. We had it happen to our site at work a couple of years ago and it took 10 days of us being offline for it to be completely cleaned up. Unfortunately hackers can do all kinds of things so that when you think you've sorted it, they can get right back in again. I know it's frustrating but give them the time to get it properly sorted.

The store is running on a different software, so it's indeed possible it may be fixed already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murph Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Sorry I think my question mark might have caused confusion. I meant that although the main website is down, you can still get a direct link to the store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finley1234 Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 It's quite an unfortunate time for the site to go down with a few weeks till the event. Hope Showmasters gets this fixed sooner rather than later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crippsy_99 Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 I just tried it and still getting: Reported Attack Page!

dragonsanddaffodils Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 yup, it says that it has reported malware and has probably been recently hacked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RainbowDisney Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 I had the warning too other day using Firefox. However, i took a risky gamble and bypassed the warning and went to the site anyway. I then did a thorough anti-virus, malware and bot scan and all came back clean. Sometimes people register the sites as attacks on purpose to have them blocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finley1234 Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 Still not working. If it's not working soon (ie. by the end of the weekend) then the event could suffer slightly because the website is the main source of advertising and newcomers won't know about the event. Lets hope its fixed soon-ish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes people register the sites as attacks on purpose to have them blocked. we are going over it 100% and rebuilding everything as we speak , we do not think its putting out anything to damage other computers its just messed up our site so it warns people that there is a issue with the page . it has been attacked on purpose at a time that is important to us being 3 weeks out from one of our big shows. it will be fixed very soon and we will be back on track thanks for understanding everyone jason 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
