To those having noticed our website incident:
We did an update to Apache and PHP last week and someone managed to exploit a hole in one of these and replace the index file on the webserver.
No other data than the index.php were replaced, and no other data could be accessed as the webserver is physically and geographically separated from our Registry Systems.
We have taken our webservers down during the weekend to further reinforce our website against similar incidents in the future.
Thank you for your vigilence and to all who notified us about this unfortunate incident.
Hakon Haugnes
President

Look bro, YOU'RE the one who's supposed to have "viligence" ... you're running a friggin' registry for Chrissake. "To those having noticed our website incident ..." sounds pathetic.
I can't believe the nudnicks at ICANN approved your application for a TLD over those better able to run a secure registry. What a joke.
I can't begrudge you Hakon, you're only doing your best. But the fact is, .name is evolving on-the-fly, substantially different from original concept, and your registry has been hacked. How you can flop like that and not incur the wrath of ICANN or the DoC is beyond me ... they obviously don't really care.
