NOW ITS STARTING ITS **** AGAIN!! Refer back to my FIRST post, and start implementing those Four Steps I gave you.
This appears to be a SERIOUS viral infestation on your end, Good Buddy, which you have yet to address. I suggest the following:
No indication of anything viral so far. I'm not seeing anything you've described yet. My server techs are working on things as we speak.

Big 10-4 there Good Buddy! I reckon they done FUUUUUKT UP! their damned servers, and DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY'RE DOING!!Got a message that Joey had sent me a PM to my inbox. Went to my inbox and nothing there. The next day, madness.
Now, when I go to FBBO, I get a warning from Safari and if I wanted to go to the website, it would be:

This appears to be a SERIOUS viral infestation on your end, Good Buddy, which you have yet to address. I suggest the following:
1. Boot a SAFE rescue medium, like an optical drive with a GOOD FREE OPERATING SYSTEM, such as *BSD or a NON-CORPORATE GNU/LINUX environment, complete with suitable anti-viral software such as ClamAV. You can probably use KNOPPIX for this, which is a fairly well known Live GNU/Linux system. I run Slackware myself.
2. Scan your backups from the past 2 weeks also.
3. Get an alternate machine ready, with a clean OS install and CLEAN webpages running, sans user accounts.
4. Start restoring accounts after the data has been certified clean by your scans.
Anyway, I see that Google Chrome runs the FCBO pages alright, for now, though Firefox still complains, as you see from my screen capture.
I suppose I can reboot my server, as it has an uptime of 3 days, and with the kernel upgrade it might be wise to reload the modules. IFF I get a clean session after this, I won't bother you further, but I expect to be bugging you again, soon.
I hope you get your server WELL restored to SAFE function.

Good Work Joey! Things have worked fine today. Not knowing anything more about your servers than what we saw yesterday, I really can't say anything about them, other than suggesting the sort of WIPE I did in frustration.
as I'm sure you know, software doesnt always operate as expected
Why we always had that done overnight or weekends at work. Not middle of the work day.as I'm sure you know, software doesnt always operate as expected
