I have just found out that David Airey’s popular graphic design blog has been hacked and his domain http://www.davidairey.com stolen. For those of you who are fans of his design blog he is currently using http://www.davidairey.co.uk so make sure you change any links to that address (just going to do mine now). Best wishes to David for sorting out the problems with his site.

Damn that is awful and scary…wish him the best of luck and isn’t there a way he can get his domain back?
I think he is trying Matt – though his hosting company and domain registration. You can read more about it on his site

Hi Tara, and thanks so much for helping me with this.
I’m in touch with WIPO, who deal with domain name disputes, and hopefully they’ll be able to offer assistance. My host company, and GoDaddy (where the domain is currently held), can’t do anything, as as far as they were aware everything was done through the proper channels (my email and accounts).
Still, there’s a lesson here.
I hope you’ve been keeping well lately.
Matt, thanks for your thoughts.
Hi David,
No problem, I hope you manage to get it all sorted soon.
those hackers has no life… :S
hopr they will get up soon.
David, when you say stolen, you meanall the info, pages, etc were copied or what? I don’t understand how someone couyld actually steal a domain… a name is registered to only one person.
