We've determined the crash was related to our friend's imminent travel to Islamabad for some some serious James Bond level satellite stuff. The Pakis ran a bot on our website and crashed it with a ping level denial of service.
We recovered the basic site elements but nonetheless remain vulnerable to server port attacks.
We know you don't know what this means or the threat to your home systems. If you're using a Mac or an Intel machine running one of several versions of Linux you're absolutely safe. If you're on a Microsoft OS and especially MS Vista, Big Brother has been reading your email for years and you're dead.
If you want to check for sure, check your system command and review your IP configuration by typing "ipconfig" and hitting enter. If the IP address returned looks OK, you're good to go. If not, send me an email. I can redirect your machine through an anonymous redirect.
In the meantime avoid any Myspace.com sites. Not only do they stink, they are infecting your MS operating systems with spyware and adware. This means they are using you're computer when you are and even when you're not.
