Man, some people have too much time on their hands...

Had to deal with a similar situation a while ago with our company website. If you are using Godaddy, make sure you lock down your FTP and use SSH instead for uploading/making changes to your site! They can easily hack your FTP to upload viruses and crap, but SSH is much more secure! PM me if think that's the issue and need any help!

Good luck!

Whew, I was hoping you got my message! Was browsing the site on your ecigs and accessories page and stuff started popping up if that helps any....

These are nasty little things, you miss one little piece of their code it will just reinfect the whole site all over again.

Hope you get it all sorted out so it will be save to order our liquid gold again soon!

As far as we know, our programmer has knicked all the nasties and put some things in place so hopefully, it doesn't happen again.

Someone REALLY doesn't want us selling our liquids. But can't keep us down forever.

If you were waiting to purchase, all should be well now, but please send me alerts asap if you happen to find anything else popping up.

Also, let me know where you were on the site when it happened. It shouldn't be a problem, but just in case, please e-mail an issues to me at geoff@tastyvapor.us

I very much appreciate your patience, while we undo this garbage.

I stand as witness! i was yesterday on your site, clicked product info and boom trojan pop up trying to "fix my computer", i was like wait wut, then clicked again to recreate the pop up and nothing, so i figured it might have been another site, but seems it was tastyvapor site.

Hope you can fix it with not much hassle!

Is Tasty Vapor an actual facility. I had another supplier say to use eliquid from an actual facility. What did he mean.

This was likely a supplier who ran a facility and wanted you to buy from him. Having a facility isn't a qualifier for making excellent liquid, that requires talent.

Stay on topic please.

Last night, my programmer and I hammered everything out. Keep in mind that it is a GOOD IDEA to reload the site, NOT from cache. Hit Ctrl + F5. Otherwise, it might continue to reload from a cache that links to the mallware.

Also, couldn't hurt to empty your cache and try the site again.

I do apologize for the inconvenience, however, Nobody running a web entity these days are free from the burden of buttheads.

As for orders over the phone, we only take orders online. We don't take checks, we don't use PayPal. This is all a matter of "risk management". If we keep payment limited to one source, we reduce the mistakes that can possibly happen along the way.

Once again, keep in mind OUR SITE DOES NOT RETAIN CREDIT CARD INFORMATION.

Agreed, So true. Geoff and his crew are amazing. Their juice is like a thousand times better than any manufactured liquid. It is made FRESH to order!

Good to know that you are back up and working. I am so sorry that you had to be a victim of an attack. =(

Martha, I would seriously try some of their juice. You can either get a 30ml bottle from them for cheap, or even check out the liquid swap thread.

Same thing happened to me. I have unfortunately had that virus before, and it was a ..... to get rid of. I finally had to just shutdown my computer to stop it from attaching itself. It seemed to work. I ran my spy doctor, and no virus was detected.
:shock:
