The Bulletin Board was subjected to the Santy.A worm attack (a kind of virus) in the early hours of this morning - this brought down the whole board and a lot of other websites on this server. Many other bulletin boards which are based on the same software were affected. The board is back up but does not have some of the more advanced 'profile' features. This may effectively prevent new users from registering, but existing user should have no difficulty. Note that the worm only affected the web server. This particular virus cannot be spread to people who simply viewed the site.

In the last fortnight, club members Bob Dixon and Martin Dennett were in a race to solve the first Goldclue hunt; Bob the early runner and Martin the eventual victor.
