Dear Members and Visitors
First of all, www.chelseachams.com is back and it is safe to visit. Our most sincere apologies for the site being down and for the inconvenience it has caused to our guests. Even with all the effort and expense we have undertaken to keep our server secure, someone managed to hack into our domain and place a small snippet of malicious code into the headers of some html pages. Here is what happened after that: Google put up a warning about the suspected malware.The site was immediately scrubbed clean, all the html pages were replaced with UNinfected versions, server security was changed and enhanced, and the site was submitted back to Google for a rescan so they could remove their warning. As you can read for yourselves in any of numerous discussion threads, getting a site rescan from Google is an odd process to say the least. We were made to wait 24 hours before even being allowed to request a rescan, and then it took another 24 hours for that to be accomplished and the warning to be removed. It seems that the lesson learned is that nothing is 100% secure - the FBI, NSA and CIA have all been hacked. Know that we remain vigilant against attacks on our visitors and ourselves. Again we apologize for the inconvenience.
