MySearchFunds - Downtime

I have just read the following email which has been sent from customer support at MySearchFunds:

Today on the 26th June around 9:00 AM UK time our service was down due to being attacked by a denial of service attack.

This is when someone sends a large amount of data at our servers which swamps the connection to our server and therefore other people cannot connect to the service.

This is a deliberate and criminal attack to bring the service down which we will be reporting to the appropriate authorities.

We are being targeted due to the large growth and the success of the service we provide you.

We are working on tracking who is attacking us but until we can solve this problem the service may be down for a few hours.

If you could please pass this information onto anyone else that you know that uses are service then we would appreciate this.

We will be releasing a formal announcement with more information about this problem as soon as it has been solved.

Thanks for using our service and please tell your friends!

Regards

Julie
