Can you go to http://www.mywahbiz.com/~bsknees/ and tell me what has happened here?

This is my mostly non active website. I am using at the moment to hold my www.bsknees.com domain and to have a method of rediresting my traffic when we open our new site. At first I thought it was my server that had been hacked but it looks like www.mywahbiz.com is working it is only my site that is not. I am a little lost here, not sure what to make of it...is it a random thing or a personl thing (I can't imagine anyone personally wanting to shut me down , and we are not open anyway) Any ideas?

Your site has been hacked. Same thing happened to mamadrama.com - you should contact http://www.mywahbiz.com/ and make them aware of the problem.

when you say the same thing happened do you mean this EXACT same page showed up? That would make me belive it was the same person/group but I have no connection with mama drama other than I hang at Amitys and some mama's who hang at mama drama hang here too. I just don't understand why anyone would hack me...weird.

Oh and I did contacted mywahbiz.com, just thought I would ask here too, since I am so clueless with this sort of thing....thank for the reply mama.

Mamadrama is hosted by the same server as you. Her server was hacked and she is trying to fix the problem.

Here is a copy and paste of Dana's earlier post. No need to email her she knows and is working on it. If she doesn't answer emails that just means she's working hard to get the files restored.

Sorry everyone, got in super late last night after a family Christmas gathering and found the mess. Fortunately (not that it makes it any less frustrating) only the indexes were affected and all other files should be intact, but its all index files on all sites, including subdirectories so its going to take a little time to completely fix it...

We are working on it all as quickly as possible but I can't give any definite time line for it all, we have gotten up quite a bit of the main indexes for each site already (and if thats the only index file your site has it should be fine) but still have to do all sub-directories on all sites which is what will take the longest as their are so many to do. We will use the most recent server backup files but these could be out of date of whatever your most current indexes were. Please anyone who owns a website - take this as a reminder to back you site up often yourself. Those of you who host through me this can be done quickly and easily through your cpanel.

For those of you with sites hosted with me, if you do have your own backups of your files you can speed things up for your own site by reuploading *any and all* index files, including index.php index.html index.htm etc. no matter the format.

I apologize to everyone again.
