Not this site

but seeing as the thread is for any site hosted by wise1, our forum (the Manchesters) and the support forum are both down

We suffered a DDOS attack today which resulted in various parts of your websites being down, unfortunately it took quite some time for telehouse to isolate this, you may also have seen it affect sites like lloydstsb, comet, scottish power and many others.

We are very sorry for this event which was out of our control. It also affected our mail servers so we were having difficulty getting emails out updating you.

To prevent communication issues such as this we are moving our mail servers to the US to lessen the chances of being able to contact you in the future.

Thank you for your patience.

hi kitty

we run a site dedicated to the manchester regiment from it's inception to it's amalagamation

it's in two parts really, the main site which gives information on the battalions, personal stories and general research on the regiment and then the forum ( which is attached) which is specially for people to post requests from the members of the group for data on their family that served

the main site is up and running but its the forum has crashed

if you are running McAfee site adivsor, it may have warned you as the site hasn't been looked at by them as yet

chris
