I'm a big fan of your paintings—someone on a forum I moderate posted a link to this site and you can see my reply <A HREF="http://www.thecardermethod.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=57&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&start=40#p683" REL="nofollow">here</A>.<BR/><BR/>She recently sent me a message about your website problem. I'm pretty certain it wasn't hijacked. If you look at the domain registration details <A HREF="http://whois.domaintools.com/qhart.com" REL="nofollow">here</A>, you'll notice the domain registration was on January 31st (of some year). I think your domain name simply expired, and since you didn't renew it, someone else registered it! I'm not sure if you had an outdated e-mail address listed in your domain registration contact details or if your domain registrar simply didn't e-mail you a warning about the upcoming expiration.<BR/><BR/>If you don't have someone to help you straighten this out I can talk to your domain registrar for you and see what options you have, but I'll need you to e-mail me the account information (the username and password for the company you bought the domain through). I can probably get to this sometime tomorrow (Monday in the States). My e-mail address is David.Quinn.Carder.alt@gmail.com (that's the one I post publicly, anyway).<BR/><BR/>Your site is definitely safe to navigate to, though, so don't worry about viruses or any of that. If you have a local copy of all your website files DON'T DELETE THEM! Chances are the online copies are all gone.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02830781748166229698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7136908675776802633.post-17523958069372763672008-02-03T13:07:00.000-06:002008-02-03T13:07:00.000-06:00Scary, I am curious as to what you just did to get...Scary, I am curious as to what you just did to get it all back?Frank Gardnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02011564146411771531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7136908675776802633.post-15024453307959563782008-02-03T11:48:00.000-06:002008-02-03T11:48:00.000-06:00This comment has been removed by the author.Svenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00990716031562204644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7136908675776802633.post-352203277759125842008-02-03T11:22:00.000-06:002008-02-03T11:22:00.000-06:00Hi QiangI´m really no expert on computers, but if ...Hi Qiang<BR/>I´m really no expert on computers, but if it is so called "trojans" that causes problems, I´d suggest that you scan your computer with "Trojan Remover". A free, fully working, trial version can be downloaded here: http://www.simplysup.com/tremover/download.html<BR/>It did wonders for me when I had similar problems recently. But, as someone else proposed, it´s probably a good idea to contact your web host as well. Anyway, I hope things will be sorted out soon. I´m a regular visitor to your blog and I really like your work! <BR/><BR/>Best regards<BR/>Johan Claeson<BR/>Sweden<BR/><BR/>http://imagenation.se/index.htmlAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16466875726827199576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7136908675776802633.post-70966348235491998232008-02-03T10:31:00.000-06:002008-02-03T10:31:00.000-06:00Talk to your web host - they should be able to res...Talk to your web host - they should be able to reset your password for you. Then you can FTP to your site and remove the bad content and re-upload your content.<BR/><BR/>Hope that helps.

I am not able to understand why people do things like that. What could they possibly gain from destroying someone else's efforts?<BR/>I really like your work and I look at your blog almost every day. Please keep a positive attitude and keep going. You are an excellent artist. Best wishes!<BR/>(I wrote this message a few minutes ago and deleted it because I made a typo and couldn't figure out how to correct it. So I re-wrote it.)Bruce Hedgeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10496337027456322913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7136908675776802633.post-72381358475970157752008-02-03T04:47:00.000-06:002008-02-03T04:47:00.000-06:00This comment has been removed by the author.Bruce Hedgeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10496337027456322913noreply@blogger.com
