I had to take down NS the other day due to some malicious files being discovered on the forums. I couldn’t find the infected files with a quick online virus scan, so I took NS down for safety measures.
I know NS has been down a while, but I simply haven’t had the time to take care of it properly (worst case scenario it can take several hours to get everything up and running
). Sadly our backups were updated the same day I found out NS had been infected, so fixing NS is going to take a little more time
IMPORTANT!
If you’ve been on NS since this past Sunday (January 1st 2012), and before it was taken down by me, please run a full complete virus scan of your computer(s). You MAY have (a) malicious file(s) in your internet cache directory! When I got infected, I found two malicious files in my cache folder. And while on that topic, you should run frequent virus scans. If you don’t have a anti-virus program, I recommend checking out AVG Free, since it’s free and decent, and can alert you quickly if you have malicious files on your computer, or if you visit a website that has been infected with a virus.
If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact me.
I am so sorry for the inconvenience!!
