A major exploit in 1.11.0 has come to our attention late Saturday night PDT. While we investigate this issue, we have decided to close the grid to new logins.

I will update this posting when our investigation has completed. Thanks for your patience and understanding.

We are working on a fix for this now, and testing it as I type this.

I will update everyone when we have a deployment window.

Second Life is currently down for an update to fix the major exploit found this evening. The deployment window is from 4:40am to 8am PDT Sunday, July 23.

I will announce here when Second Life is once again open to the public.
