I’m a registered user of the Talk Morgan forum, but since mid afternoon yesterday (23 June 2019) I’m unable to get onto the site.

Message comes back as

“Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /ubbthreads.php/forums/8/1/Maintenance_&_Servicin on this server.”

I’ve a quick link to TM, and have also tried going in by googling TM and following those links but get the same message.

Sometimes the last part of the message is different as in it might say “classic Morgan” or “Malvern Arms” instead of Maintenance in the above cut and paste.

So my question is am I alone in this, or is the site down for some reason? For some time in the bar at the top of the web browser in get a “site not secure” warning but thought that was to do with certification of hosted sites - but maybe not?

I use Safari on the iPad and have no problem getting onto other sites.

Thanks Rich

I also got an email from the Admin at the image library yesterday evening saying the same thing.

I don’t understand why anyone would want to attack a site let alone a fairly niche, innocuous motoring forum...
