It has come to our attention that the popular web hosting billing system WHMCS (www.whmcs.com) has been compromised in what appears to be a targeted attack on their servers. We are aware that a large number of our customers use WHMCS. As such, we strongly recommend you change any passwords or API keys that you use with the software or website. If you are using the VPS.net WHMCS module, you can change your API key at https://control.vps.net/profile.
We do not believe there is any direct risk to customers due to this compromise, however in this sort of situation its always best to err on the side of caution. Should you have any questions about this please do contact us at [email protected].

As many of you will have noticed by now, we have today become the unfortunate victims of a severe and malicious hack.
We are currently working to restore normal operations as quickly as possible and will post updates here as they become available here.
Initial indications are that the database of our ticketing system may have been compromised, and thus we would recommend that if you have recently sent us a ticket containing your WHMCS or FTP login details, and have not yet changed them again following that, that you do so as soon as possible. As soon as we know more about what happened we'll provide updates.
In terms of licensing, providing you have a valid local license key then at this time you should not be experiencing any interuptions in service. If you are doing a new installation or moving your license and thus require a license refresh, these will not be available until the site is back online. Or alternatively if your local key was not valid prior to this downtime, then you may also be experiencing issues validating currently, and once back online do get in touch with us so any local key issues with your installation can be resolved.
We would like to offer our sincere apologies for any inconvenience caused. We ask you to stick with us - now more than ever - in a challenging time. We promise to get everything back to normal soon.
UPDATE 18:09 The license checking server is now back online and providing valid license responses. So if you were experiencing licensing errors before, these should now be resolved. Our website and ticket desk should be back online within the next 30-60 minutes.
More to follow shortly...

Great Success !
Apache is working on your cPanel® and WHM™ Server
If you can see this page, then the people who manage this server have installed cPanel and WebHost Manager (WHM) which use the Apache Web server software and the Apache Interface to OpenSSL (mod_ssl) successfully. They now have to add content to this directory and replace this placeholder page, or else point the server at their real content.
ATTENTION!
If you are seeing this page instead of the site you expected, please contact the administrator of the site involved. (Try sending an email to <webmaster@domain>.) Although this site is running cPanel, WebHost Manager, and Apache software it almost certainly has no other connection to cPanel Inc. or the Apache Group. Please do not send mail about this site or its contents to cPanel Inc. or the Apache Group.
