Today, when you find Byteact in a search result or browse to it on the web using browsers which rely on Google’s SafeBrowsing API you will find that there is no longer a warning message thanks to the hard work and dedication of everyone involved in helping rectify the issue.

I’d like to thank everyone who assisted us in this issue including everyone from the Google SafeBrowsing team, everyone who contacted Google on our behalf, StopBadware.org’s Erica George, Kevin and Craig from Byet Internet Group and everyone else who helped us work through this issue!

Thank you all very much!

Progress on Domain Issue

We are making progress on the Google warning issue and are working to resolve the issue on many fronts including…

  • Implementing new signup security features
  • Developing a proactive back-end security engine which will scan existing accounts for violations
  • Developing an easy to use abuse reporting system
  • Stepped up manual review of accounts

This will of course be an on-going security project which will be extended to include all of our hosting services, not just Byteact Hosting to prevent abuse and a repeat of this issue.

We have temporarily suspended all signups for Byteact free hosting of course so that we may focus on our existing users and eliminating all accounts which violate our terms of service.

We would like to take time to thank Erica George of StopBadware.org for her assistance in this issue as well as our friends Kevin and Craig of Byet Internet Group for their assistance and technical support.

Thank you all for your patience and understanding at this time!

Regards,
Andrew
