Hey folks....Here are the details with as much info as we are able to share at this point...
The forum software was attacked but the server is (and was) secure (i.e. we DO NOT and HAVE NOT hosted any viruses, etc). We’ve closed software holes and are continuing to monitor and do whatever we can on the backend. Google still has to clear the warning and we’re just waiting on that.
AS ALWAYS….We encourage everyone to change their password and make sure their virus protection software is up to date ANYTIME they are on the internet – whether it’s visiting TideFans or any other site.
Some of you may have lost your custom avatars in this process. If so, you'll need to upload/change them again. Sorry about that! If there are other things that aren't "as they were" please let me know.
If you ever need top-notch site-hosting and a dedicated server (for your business, church, school, etc), I 100% reccommend Jon Larsen at RichWeb.com. He's the best I've ever dealt with and proved it yet again in how he's worked with us (and continues to work) on this issue throughout the weekend. The very best.
