Between 06:00 and 09:46 GMT on 21 April and between 10:25 and 20:24 GMT on 22 April, HiFiForum was offline and unavailable.
The first outage was caused by malicious Internet users gaining access to the system through some other users' out-of-date and exploitable PHP or CGI scripts and the second outage, was caused by an "out of memory" error on the web server, according to our ISP.
We are currently reviewing the situation with our ISP, and deciding on an action plan for moving forward. Whether this means working more closely with our existing ISP or finding a new ISP, i cannot say, but yesterday's 10 hour outage was unacceptable.
HiFiForum management apologies for the outage, and we hope no inconvenience was caused.
If you have any questions or comments regarding this outage, or would like to see more information, please discuss the outage in this forum topic: https://hififorum.co.uk/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=409&forum=14
Thanks again,
