WV State Bar Site Remains Offline After Last Malware Infection

The WV State Bar site remains offline today. The site was taken offline last Friday, four days after it was discovered the site was hosting malware yet again.

In an email, the Bar published information the site would be offline for maintenance:

“SPECIAL EDITION BAR BLAST”

* wvbar.org is currently offline for maintenance
* For Casemaker access, click here - https://demo.lawriter.net - login and password are westva (lowercase)
* For registration & other inquiries regarding the 2009 Annual Meeting, please contact Cheryl L. Wright at
cheryl@wvbar.org or 304.558.0828
*For Information regarding pro hac vice admissions, please contact Cheryl L. Wright at cheryl@wvbar.org or
304.558.0828

This is the same information currently on the website at http://www.wvbar.org/. It appears the site has been taken down to fix whatever problem was causing the site to be compromised on an almost monthly basis.

While my firm has not reported any infections that can be traced to the Bar's website, it remains to be seen if others firms have been so lucky.
