Firefox says EN World is an attack site?

[Scott DeWar]

Wahoo! the blind fold is off of the security guard!!

I'm glad the issue has been resolved. I needed my EN World fix.

By the way, it was really hard to get good info on this problem while it lasted. I found there's an ENWorld livejournal, but it hasn't been updated since 2009.

If EnWorld gets "hacked" again, where can we go for info?

For what it's worth, I'd love to have an official rally point in times of trouble. During previous problems, that Livejournal has actually been helpful finding out what's going on. This time around, there wasn't anything so I had to dig a little deeper.

I found something that almost worked: twitter feeds with the #enworld tag. There were folks asking questions, but no particular responses. If that loop were completed, it would be a fantastic fallback spot. Updates as simple as "'we're working on it" are actually valuable information.

As I said, my twitter feed is official and said exactly that. The Livejournal thing is nothing to do with me.

If folks want to ask me a question on twitter, I'm sure they know to put [MENTION=1]Morrus[/MENTION] in it if they want me to see it.

Thank you guys for the extra data and heads up.

I just wanted to thank you once again for everything you do to keep EN World up an running!

For what it's worth I didn't know, so I couldn't ask. More importantly, Google doesn't know that either. When I asked it about the malware problem, it pointed me at #enworld, which was very nearly a useful solution. If that tag were put to use, anybody could find it using existing search engines.

I'd never even heard of an #enworld tag, just like I'd never heard about the Livejournal page.

I don't know what that is, but it's nothing to do with us. I wasn't even aware of it until you mentioned it.

It appears to be a journal that someone started on one of the occasions that EN World was down. So it is about you, but not by you.

Oh god... EN World has become sentient and is acting on it's own accord!! /Panic.
