I have had Cake Central bookmarked since I joined--over 2 yrs ago.
Now when I hit my bookmark list and click on cake central, I get a page for Halifax (something in the UK). Asks for my password.

I can now only access CC from a message in my inbox. And still get lots of errors but eventually I get to it.

I do realize that it's been off and on these past few days due to maintenance but just wanted to let admin know about this new problem. This was the only topic I could get to.
Thanks--Pam

I'm having the same problem but I also get a "phishing website" warning on every page.

Its very strange.

It kind of seems like a hacker got in.

BUMP


I bumped this because I and another member of CC who is a friend of mine are having the same issue. She got the phising warning and I brought up the Halifax website.

The only way I got in was searching for CC on google and sort of back dooring my way in.

If I try not to access anything else on the site I'm getting not found messages - I'm hoping one of the moderator's will see this and bring it to Heath's attention.

I just got the phishing notice too on Internet Explorer. And I can't get to a Forum at all without hitting an error message.

I'm having the same problem Crying or Very sad It takes me several attempts to be able to access CC .....Halifax keeps coming up and when I can access CC if I click on a Post it says..not found on this server. I see where they are doing maintenance..hopefully this will fix the problem.

When I just went to post this...it says..can't find the server....I'll try to submit it again and hopefully it will only post once!

I get the same thing. This is the message from Internet Explorer:

Internet Explorer has determined that this is a reported phishing website. Phishing websites impersonate other sites and attempt to trick you into revealing personal or financial information.

I guess the site owners need to work on this one. Yet another problem! Why can't the internet be nice to us?????? Crying or Very sad Crying or Very sad Crying or Very sad

I'm having the same problems. I can't use my saved favorite link. I was able to get here by typing the www. first. I can get the home page, but can only get to forums when it feels like letting me, other times I get an error page.

Same here (all of the above). I did finally get one post made after trying it about 6 or 7 times but haven't been able to get any more to go through. So not sure if this one will even show up, but I thought I'd give it a try.

Ditto - I keep getting the Halifax page too asking for my username & password. I finally got through after just re-typing the web address several times.
