It appears that some thick white hatter hacker has found out that you can download a persons names, phones numbers and/or images of their email addresses that they send to the site for members of the public to contact them about the advert. As I said I broke the site by making it work as intended.

If you see the suspended page that is because the hosting provider has disabled the data breech.

Web site is back after adding the following to the rules tick box so people are explicitly giving their permission to use the fields for a public advert site.

Adam, thanks for the update, and your efforts. Homeworkshop is one of my favourite sites and seems to be quite unique in what it does.
