Due to a XSS attack that has been committed, my website will be down until the problem has been fixed and re-indexed by Google. On some browsers, you would have seen an alert that looked like this:
"Warning: Visiting this site may harm your computer
The website you are visiting appears to contain malware.
Malware is malicious software that may harm your computer or otherwise operate without your consent. Your computer can be infected just by browsing to a site with malware, without any further action on your part."
I have also been working on a new version of this website, which mentioned why there wasn't any more activity since it was first hosted (apart from a few adjustments to fix bugs). This new version will be the actual website once this problem has been fixed. Apologies for the inconvenience caused, I just don't know how someone managed to hack my website without me even knowing.
*XSS = Cross-Site Scripting (more information at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-site_scripting)
EDIT: The website is now back up and running, and with a new version!
