It seems the Council is having problems with its website.

A revenge DoS attack?

The number of time this site has been attacked you would have thought the Plod would have looked into it..... It would be ironic if the council site did get hit, even more so if it was the Hartlepool Pravda.

It was yesterday when this site was also down.

I heard Stubbs made a frantic dash to the Railway Station when he realised The Mayor's Robes had been collected by SAB. He just managed to prize them out of his fat chubby fingers as the train started pulling out. Phew, that was close!

It was yesterday when this site was also down.

The following message is displayed on the H BC web site:

'This site is temporarily offline for scheduled routine maintenance.
We apologise for any inconvenience, please call back soon.'

Surely this wouldn't be viewable in the case of a DDoS attack, where it doesn't load up at all?

That's what I was getting earlier, now it is just saying, "This webpage is not available"
