    The datacenter has confirmed that the content was properly removed from the server and the block has been removed. All network connectivity has been restored to the server.

    We are still awaiting a response from the datacenter. Unfortunately they do not allow multiple unlock requests, so we are on the mercy of their response time. We are hoping that it will not be too much longer.

    We have filed all the necessary documentation to prove the content (account) was removed and filed an unlock request. Now we are just waiting to hear back from their support/abuse department.

    Today we received an abuse complaint from the datacenter, giving us one hour to remove the mentioned content. Within that hour timeframe we removed the content and reported back to the datacenter, stating it had been removed and the account terminated. Later we received notice that the content was still loading, although the account was terminated. After that 1 hour timeframe, the datacenter locked the server, causing it to appear offline.

    The mentioned content continues to load even though the account was removed and the server being locked. Proving that the content is not being hosted on our server any longer. We are working with the datacenter to get this resolved and the server unlocked/back online.
