Security Attacks: We Spoke Too Soon

We've been cleaning the site again and again, but we keep getting reinfected ... four times now, at our count. We're working with our web host and a security consultant now to track down the source. Again, we apologize for the trouble, and strongly suggest that anyone using our site use a recently updated virus detection program. We'll keep you posted on our progress.

    Check the icons/avatars people are using on the forums. They might be infected and may need to be removed. Particualrly if they are allowed to be posted from any source.

    Just a thought.

    Yep, we're moving the forums to an "isolation chamber" of their own, to try to protect the main Atlas site from re-infection. They should be back in their new location at forum.atlas-games.com in a few hours.
