Yes Will seems MD Web Hosting is no longer with us.

It may have something to do with MD practically becoming Netregistry. Their website had a similar style client area to Netregistry, however, now the site simply redirects to Netregistry. Cya MD!

MDWeb used to keep an eye on this site but I am not sure, they have either changed ip’s in which case I don’t know the new ip or they have not bothered because I haven’t done an update for a long time. I do know from the statistics that we get a lot of traffic for their keywords. If it was me I would keep an eye out but then again who knows.

If you are still having problems getting your epp, you can visit AUDA password recovery and if your email address is on the contact list you will receive it from AUDA. I am glad your new host is working out for you.

Hmmmm…I wonder what happened to Karla the Business Operations Manager for MDWebHosting. I think I read that “I am reading every single comment that is being posted on this website, and that we are adressing every single issue we encounter on the way.”
Hmmmm..if if she can’t address the time it takes to respond to a customers request for an EPP I find it very unlikely that she has the ability to be the Business Operations Manager for MDWebHosting.
Well, just a thought….

Well it is close to 24 hours now since I lodged the support ticket for my EPP. I recieved the automated reply that we have your ticket bla bla but nothing else yet.
I have looked through my main account and logged into the actual domain login area and I can not find it anywhere. I can change my DNS, password etc but I can’t find the EPP.

Anyway I do not have enough knowledge of the code to determine if other sites had been infected.

I have been with my new hosting company now for a while and they go out of their way to help and even admit when they make mistakes as they did during a recent server migration.
I even get a free SSL everytime I transfer a domain to them.

Hi David,
it sounds like they are still up to their old routines. Did you do a reverse dns on the server to see what other sites where on it and then check them for the hacked code? They tried to blame me but when I tested the server everysite also had the same code that was injected into every .html .php file.

I do hope you get your domains sorted. The EPP code every registrar is supposed to have those available to the client well according to AUDA. If you have the old resellers ip address send me another comment and I will check it out for you if you like.

Good Luck with your new hosting.

Wow..this site is great. I wish I had know it was here earlier.
I had my reseller hosting account with MD aswell. My site was hacked and phishing emails for various banks around the world were sent from my site. one bank in Australia too. This of course grabbed the attention of the Australian Federal Police who I had to deal with and which I might add finally got the attention of MD.
After I suggested that their service was terrible and I was thinking about finding another provider they blamed file permissions for that one too but also suggested that once hackers found my site they would just keep on hacking and that I should find another provider.
Well I did find one. i still have domains there but I am slowly getting those transfered too. Which brings me to my last complaint. I had trouble finding my EPP transfer code for one of my domains and registered a support ticket to help me find it. Well that was about 12 hours ago now….does it really take that long to find it for me???? Well my domain expires in May so I hope i get it by then.
