Check out ATR.org looks like Ed has got the password and we might be back online soon.
News article in reference to the above - http://www.theregister.co.uk/2007/11/30/fasthost_hack_update/
AccordR.org returns shortly.
Q: What happened here?
A: The host of the server and site got hacked, in an effort to halt the attack they decided a 'mass reset' of accounts was appropriate, unfortunately the database that links the forum to it's data had it's password reset also, hence the forum went down.
Now this isn't a major issue in itself, however the reset password wasn't sent out to customers until sometime later, in fact I received my letter with new password just today - Friday 7th December.
Prior to this I tried calling their phone support and failed several times (over one hour in a queue each time), when I did finally make contact I was advised I couldn't have any password credentials over the phone and hence the delay.
Now that I have the updated credentials I'll be bringing the site back online shortly.
