Hi,...For unknown reasons, my site has become password protected.
I noticed this error bout 3 weeks ago and have not had the time to investigate the cause till now.
I have not set an ACL on my site, and not made any changes to site since 1st upload last spring.
Any ideas as to where this error came from? How to fix? Could unauthorized persons have violated my website?
My site is :www. J I M M Y G T E E S . C O M (No spaces)

Thanks,
Dave

Hi LadynRed,
Well, nobody but me should be able to access my site workings. I have not provided access to any others.
Hacker maybe?

It's not the site itself...it's the server on which it resides.

If I recall correctly, I've seen this once before and it's because the IUSR_(machine name) account doesn't have the right permissions.

It's not a hack...it's just a server misconfiguration. Bad server. Bad, BAD server.

So one day the site is all good, then a "server misconfiguration" just happened?...hmmm.
Ok, what needs to be done on my part to fix issue?
FYI, I do know of sad people who wish harm to this site. That's what made me think hack.
No matter, Now just looking for the fix and fix so prevent same error in future.
I have found good info on topic as well.

Thanks 4 the comments.
Dave

Unless you have a control panel on your site to fix permissions, nothing. It's not your site specifically...it's a server issue. It can happen. People screw with settings on one site and it affects ten others.

You need to talk to your host, let them know what happened, and tell them to fix it. If it's your server, enable Read permissions on your IUSR_(machine name) account and you should be fine.
