WARNING - Shotley website has been hacked

Suggest you stay away from it until I can let them know (if they don't already) in case the perpetrators have put any nasty payloads on there.

Thanks for the warning. It was a poor site anyway, badly constructed, usually out of date and run by what looked to be an amateur outfit.

Yeah... it was obviously based on a framework package of some sort like PHP Nuke or Wordpress. I would imagine that it needed patching.

I hope that they can recover it without too much trouble.

Frustrating when hackers target small businesses, as they can ill afford the cost.... but I guess the reason they are vulnerable to start with.

website appears to be restored to normal operation!

(Its Wordpress based upon examination)
