just in case you missed all the fun, the 914club website was down for almost a week after we had been hacked/hijacked and a so called "Trojan" virus was planted on our server.

the intention of the virus was to be spread to our members computers to be able to gain control over as many computers as possible.

luckily, i catched it fairly quickly and shut down the site as a precaution while i was upgrading the system.

the system is once again virus free (for now) and hopefully stays that way.

if you are in doubt about your computer and you think you might have catched the virus, please, update your antivirus software to the latest version and do a full scan of your harddrive.

i'm sorry if this caused any of our members any trouble ...
