No idea. Mikky rebooted the server I think and we are back on line.

It was down at lunchtime, but obviously running fine now.

Probably totally unrelated to the problem with the site today, but I mention it in case anyone else had the same problem I had. I went on Uncovered at 10pm last night via my phone. When I switched the internet on my phone this morning I received a message telling me that my phone had a "severe virus" as a result of me visiting four Adult sites and that I should download some App to solve the problem! I was wary as the only Adult site I had visited yesterday was Uncovered and the good old BBC (though my wife took some convincing this was the case!). I switched phone off and on again and message seems to have disappeared but of course to compound things Uncovered was then unavailable for most of the day. Just wondered is it possible the site had been hacked and a virus put on? I have emailed Administrators as well.

I had exactly the same problem on my phone yesterday. Even changed browser and as soon as I visited here I had the same "severe virus" problem. Possibly only happening on Android phones from what I saw online elsewhere.

I am quite the master of pressing the power button a couple of times.

Apologies for the outage - I hope it's not related to the posts above but I'm going to give the server the once-over this weekend to see what's going on.

Lucky server. Just make sure you buy it a drink first at least :)
