Okay, let me clarify a few items of concern.  Yes, my old blog was indeed hacked.  It can happen to anyone and if you are a blogger who has not been hacked count your blessings, if you have at one time been hacked you know the nightmare it creates.

So am I safe to visit?  Yes, but do not trust me.  Those who worked on my blog have been very thorough and worked at very short notice, long hours, over the holiday weekend and the coder worked over her vacation.  We all took this quite seriously.

So what has been done?

• The team moved my entire site to another HOST.
• The team completely scrapped the template and files I was using.
• My new host has a lockdown on my site to keep this from ever happening again.

To reiterate, I took being hacked very seriously.  If my being hacked inconvenienced anyone else, I am most sincerely sorry.  I did not asked to be hacked.  It is a rather unpleasant experience and unfortunately it can happen to anyone.

That is correct, the coding of my blog is apparently a mess (do not look at me, I have no idea how to code anything), so it will take a few days to sort the coding out.   In the end my blog will either still look the same but be coded correctly or there will be an entirely new look, either way it will be properly coded and the issues some are experiencing will be gone.  Until that time I apologize for the inconvenience and my reviews will be back up as soon as possible.  I appreciate everyone’s patience.  Soon the new and improved (properly coded) Rundpinne will be up and running.

Hello faithful readers and those new to my book review blog.  Some of you, like myself, have not had any issues with Rundpinne, however  I have continued to receive emails by those who cannot access my blog or receive warnings (thank you for all who have personally emailed me) and this does concern me and clearly my efforts were not enough.

I know when I am in over my head (I am fairly computer illiterate) and so I now have a professional team looking into what is going on behind the scenes of Rundpinne.

Rundpinne may get a little wonky during this process or not (again, I am not computer literate), I ask for patience while this matter is handled by those who are computer literate.

Thank you for your patience and hopefully Rundpinne will be as good as new in no time.

Truly, all the bad computer virus/bug thingys are gone now.

Apparently my site was having some serious issues and owning all Macs, I never could see the problem.  I would like to thank those of you who emailed me and especially to my friend Speedy, who in the midst of her grief, offered sound advise which offered a very quick fix.

So what has changed?  I deleted two pages, my Affiliations page and my Book Challenges page.  One of those pages had a corrupt link;  however since I paid to have the cars repaired this weekend and a rather large tuition bill due, I did not have the money to mess about and simply deleted them all.  I wish I could warn others of which link was corrupted, but the money just was not there for me to pay for a full scale diagnostics of links that were not mine.

Thank you again for those who warned me of a possible issue, otherwise I would have continued on without not knowing.

Rundpinne is once again free of viruses and safe.
