We've been working on finalizing the restore process and automating it with scripts so that we can get the servers online as rapidly as possible. We are creating work queues and assigning servers to them therefore we will be able to provide a more concrete ETA for restores shortly.

We are also in the process of finalizing agreements that will allow us to increase manpower significantly as well as provide a stable infrastructure when the servers are restored.

In terms of the damage to the servers it was corruption of the MBR and initial sectors on the hard drive. For customers with large attached storage devices your content should be unaffected as it was not part of the primary RAID configuration.

As for the intrusion it was the result of an ex-employee who was with us for three years as a result he had intimate knowledge of our systems which is why the effects are so large.

We have made significant progress on the backend and we feel that we are reaching a point where the recovery process can begin ramping up full force. We will be sending another update soon, and thanks again to everyone for the outpouring of support - we're working as hard and smart as we can to get everyone back online.

Thank you,
