There is a virus on the main Sass site. I am taking the necessary actions to resolve the issue quickly. In the meantime do check your computer for infection. I will keep you posted on the issue and will announce when the site is clean.

That's not cool. I actually just helped my accountant aunt fix her computer from a serious issue. It was a bit of a head banger, but I hope you're able to fix things up.

Updates: Not clean yet, but because my home internet is NOT working right now. I sent the files to Animetor Lily who will be uploading clean files.

Again, I encourage anyone who has visited Sass Studio's main page to run a virus scan on their computer. Malwarebytes and Spybot Search&Destroy (both free options) found 2 trojan agents and some malware on my laptop. They also removed them. I'll add that as of now, the warning on the main page seems to have disappeared. I've cleaned out the files containing the hacked code and removed them. The site is not perfectly clean yet. (My portfolio portion of the site is still under review). However, Google's Webmaster Tools have designated that the site isn't "perfectly" clean. Thank you for your patience!

Looks like my clean up failed. The virus returned. Will try again and change some things ASAP.

I cleaned the infected files again and changed some things within the hosting hopefully this solves the issue. Please make sure you run a virus check on your computers and alert me if you find any new warnings.

Lol. Forgot to change the FTP password. Sorry. The site HTML has been cleaned again and fortified with a stronger password. I'll keep an eye on the situation.

Google has proclaimed the site clean. Looks like the hackers have been beat. It should be safe to visit Sass Studios again.
Once again I'll remind users to please run a virus scan on their computers.

Ya, seems I had to run a scan. I did end up finding stuff. On an unrelated note, our place is now empty. We're now homeless till we get to Vancouver. Using the internet at my in-laws.
