Midnightwhispers

When trying to access Midnightwhispers tonight it goes to an online pharmacy account? Would appreciate any help please. I've been following many fics there. Thanks for your help!

Bob, the senior admin, is aware of it. The site will have to be shut down until the bug is fixed, or a new server host is found. It is NOT gone, but it does need to be repaired due to the horrid lack of oversight on the part of Servage. He's looking into a new host server, but it will be fairly expensive to switch (Servage is free). I am posting updates on both the website's Twitter account (WhispersFanFic), as well as on my LJ, but at the present time there is no time frame for a fix yet. Sorry about the inconvenience. Trust me, Bob is as frustrated as the rest of us! ~Kim

Just got an update from Bob. Said this is going to be challenging, and that it involves a pharmacy scam from Russia. Do not buy from it or deal from it in any way (I think that goes without saying!). He has a software professional working on the problem, but we need to give him time to get it fixed. Afraid that's about all I know at this point. Will keep everyone posted on the Whispers Twitter account and on my LJ. ~Kim

Just to let you know - Servage hosting is not free - the bandwidth we used was never charged, but I have paid for it annually for the main site. Which is neither here nor there - we have had to contract with a web designer to spend hours getting ridding of this virus - Bob has had to travel some distance to be with the guy while he is working on it - and we will have to come up with money to move to a more secure site as well as pay for the repair. Sigh - it never ends - but Bob is working and we are in touch by phone as he works his way through it -- because the site is one of the more popular ones it attracts bottom feeders.
