Hope they sort the check out process out, I never liked or trusted the submit form because it never worked whenever I tried to use it. Not a blot on Madhouse Music themselves of course, I used to order stuff over the phone for years in the 90s, perfectly trustworthy and informative, just the ancient website of theirs (which is probably how it was hacked).

I'm a faithful Madhouse customer, but I've always thought their site could use some improvement. Maybe now it will happen? confused

When I go there I get:

Reported Attack Site!

This web site at www.madhousemusic.co.uk has been reported as an attack site and has been blocked based on your security preferences.

Attack sites try to install programs that steal private information, use your computer to attack others, or damage your system.

Some attack sites intentionally distribute harmful software, but many are compromised without the knowledge or permission of their owners.


So their servers may be compromised.
Of course we don't use any type of Windows, so we are not that vulnerable, but nevertheless we're warned.

I guess they found an SQL insertion hole and planted a trojan or other malware that way.
