Welcome to the wonderful world of IT.

(and well done )

Really well done, deeply frustrating, I share similar experience and acknowledge with sympathy the un-paid time someone just stole from your wholly philanthropic site. Vandals!

It's beyond me why anyone would target a small friendly site like Wines at Home. What could we possible have here that would be of interest to these hacker dirt bags?

Thank you, Bob, for taking the time to deal with the problem.

I know how you feel for sure had my site was hit three times in the last year. Last time we had really upped our security and it said the IP came from Texas we turned in the IP and have not been hit since. My site has nothing no names no financial nothing but a few pictures and a connection to the sales portion of the RJS site. They were trying to hit my Email section but it is just a forwarding addy so it goes out to cyber space and is then picked up and forwarded to my address. Some of the things hackers do make no sense at all. Thanks for your dedication Bob.

That's awful Robert

especially seeing as yours is your living!

keep the faith

[lockwood1956]

On a side issue

I have your half bottle of blackcurrant port on my desk here that we couldn't enter as it wasnt in a 750ml bottle

would you like the assembled masses to taste it and comment on saturday at grapefest?

regards
Bob

[lockwood1956]

I will of course organise that early in the proceedings to ensure sensible heads!!!!!

[rjb222]

That sounds good Bob. I was holding off as the bottles went into serious bottle shock and were very tannic. This seems to be settling now give it a go and let me know what the masses think. Regards Robert.
