i am confused i tried go to lfsworld.net to upload my new skin and its down or offline something i got error timed out.. so i retarted my pc and it still wont work for me... please help


i am new here and sorry about my sucks english

Nope, definately online. Have you tried lfsworld.com?

If you have, and you cant, I'll guess you cant get to liveforspeed.com either? Its probably just your ISP's DNS being a little slow - but it shouold be ok in a few hours.

i tried these lfs www's but only lfs forums workin. weird.


some hacker emailed me say laughs at me bec i got banned from lfs. i am so confused

Its unlikely you're banned from LFS.

Like I said, its probably the DNS that you're having problems with - this means that you cant get at the url's because your PC doesnt know where to look for them at the moment.

Give it a little while and it should be working again. You may wish to check your ISP's homepage to see if they have any faults as well.

omg... lfs banned me for no reason? i dont understand why?

what is ISP means again? i forget what it is sorry.

Have you recently entered your details into a non-lfs web site?

Internet Service Provider.

You're probably NOT banned from lfs. Dont panic

use this to see if you get to lfs home page: http://213.40.196.93/

If this works then its a prombem with you ISP's DNS.

i think so yeah


and thats ip homepage isnt work for me too. it seems banned me?

I cant see why tbh. You may wish to talk to Victor, before jumping to that conclusion. Use the "Contact Us" button at the bottom of this page.

Someone probably stole your account details buddy. Never seen it happen to anyone before.... but you've been locked out of the main "official" sites .

Try and see if the IPs are blocked in your local hosts file.

If you are using Windows XP, goto START > RUN > and copy/paste this in the window:


For Windows 95/98/Me type c:\windows\hosts

For Windows NT/2000/XP Pro type c:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

For Windows XP Home type c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts (this one works on Pro even)

It should ask you what to open the file with, open with Wordpad or some text editor. If you have any IPs of LFS's sites blocked, they would be listed in here. This is also where some Spam Blocking tools add popup sites and stuff.

I thought this could help, but might as well try it

But if your account was stolen, it is possible you may never get it back unless you talk to the developers about it. :o

i dont see any lfs's ip ?

here take a look

and i tried play lfs and its workin... so they dont stolen my accounts :/

god, this is so confused for me

Sorry, don't know what else to say

Looks like a plain old hosts file, so nothing in there.

dang.. i about to cry

/me shouts: "victor! we may need your expert assistance!"

Hopefully we'll get some success for you

jinx, someone posted a link to a site on LFS chat box the other day, that had only a login page and no way to register. Did you enter your details into that by chance?

If so, I notice that Victor has posted a message about possible stealing of LFS accounts, please PM him from within this forum and you can attempt to get it fixed.

If you havent, then its a pretty strange situation. All I can say is try someone else's computer and log in with your account onto the LFS websites to make sure its all working. Then you will know that its something to do with your house/pc/internet connection.

no i dont think so i did give a details in it.


thanks for helpin me out..

i know why he can't access our main web server - he has been detected stealing others accounts (confirmed by our logs). He has therefore been banned from our main webserver. This is more effective than removing his LFS license, because the problem was on the web side of things and not in-game.

There is an incredibly tiny chance that his computer was abused via a trojan or any form of hack. I've therefore given him the chance to search for these and show me _exactly_ what he found (removal logfiles - actual binaries - whatever comes up). This way he can prove it wasn't him, but to be honest, the pattern in our logfiles and the actual undertaken actions do not make me believe this is the case and I don't believe someone would go through the trouble of hacking a remote computer to steal LFS accounts. I've seen more 'lucrative' reasons why people hack accounts.

Closing this thread - sorry to all the people wasting their time trying to help him out.
