I posted about llrgt being down as well as limefly and the rest of vapournet. For some reason, my thread no longer exists.

Apparently, Vapournet has been hacked.

Someone has deleted no end of files and completely messed up Apache but that's as much as I know - other than the fact that I and many other users of Vapournet have no web pages and no e-mail at the moment.

I know Mike is trying his best to sort out the problem with the data centre so I'm just leaving him to it.

I'll report back here if I find out anything new.

Indi - Mike is about 95% done with transfering all the files -BY HAND- he should be done quite soon. Hes on MSN right now. Someone hacked VapourNet and corrupted 5 of the major files. The server is back up, hes just transfering all the users back into httpd.conf and what not, then its all back online.

BTW - Nice seein ya around again - havent seen ya forever!
