I've now updated the http://www.jk2007.routegadget.co.uk index file to remove the problem that Ed identified. I've also updated the happyherts site which had been attacked in the same way.
Sorry if it's caused anyone a problem. I don't yet know any further details about exactly how it happened, but the hacked files were timed at 17:29 yesterday evening..

I have discovered that there was an injection method attack on the server that hosts all my websites. This happened at 17:20 on the 12th April. It added the line of code mentioned in Simon's post to all index.html files on the server.
My host is now in the process of adding a recompiled kernel to prevent such attacks.
I have now updated all pages containing the code on all my sites.
It appears to be a very old virus and so would have been picked up by your anti-virus software (you do have up-to-date anti-virus software don't you!).
I don't know the significance, but I use Firefox as my browser and it didn't trigger the virus alert so I was unaware of the issue. But when I tried viewing the pages in Internet Explorer it instantly popped up a warning. I suspect that it is because Firefox is more secure and didn't allow the code to run in the first place. Any one know the answer?

Thanks for the notice.
I have removed the code again from the pages and notified the host.

I'm trying to put my route on for Day 2 (East start, M35) but lots of runners are listed as DNF, and I'm not listed at all?!

Same problem for me, again Day 2, East Start, M40L. Runners finishing in less than around 125 mins are there but not the rest, apart from one dnf.
