The constant attacks on the site coupled with funding issues has finally become too much apparently. As useful as the site is the problems sometimes kept me from even using the file database.
Hopefully like the old Tom Coyote forums they will eventually return under a new name. Hate to see this happen though.

Remember though that all the databases were copied/moved to System Lookup some time ago, so the resources are still there.

CastleCops was a website that had a lot of information about malware and was a great resource.
