Wasn't it's future in jeopardy anyway? It couldn't raise the funds to pay for servers if I remember correctly, so ultimately it was going to go down some time in the near future; this just comes as more of a surprise.

Yes, that's where it was hosted.Originally Posted by CatalysTim
Yes, you're right, and at first I thought they could have gone down because of not being able to cope with server costs indeed.
I hope it gets relaunched on another country but to be honest I doubt that will happen.

Nice !You are probably tired of hearing about trackers being shut down because that’s been happening a lot lately. LeechersLair, a large General/0Day tracker that was featured on FILEnetworks Blog several times, too was forced offline by the Malaysian government due to possible copyright infringement (at the time of shut down, LL was hosted by Shinjiru, a hosted based in Malaysia). However, we learn that this will not be the end of LeechersLair – tracker staff are determined to bring the site back online, even if it meant moving to a host in a different country.

You can read more on the link below. Government Shuts Down BitTorrent Tracker | TorrentFreak
We are hoping that the server will be released back to us sometime tomorrow but we cannot be certain of that. One thing I will say is that we will not be staying with this hosting company and I am at this very moment looking for another host. Do not listen to any rumours about LL, we are not closing down and I hope that we can get the site back up as soon as possible.
I am sending this email out to all members via a backup which I have loaded onto another server. I do have a test server which some members are hanging out on as it has a shoutbox and we can also keep members up to date with what is happening. If you want to join us then click the link below, you will need to register as it has nothing to do with the main site at all. http://ks368582.kimsufi.com/index.php
Alternately you can register an account with our forums to also keep up to date with the goings on on the following link: The Lair Forums
Any member that is worried about this situation there's no need as I have removed all logs from the server as well as all snatch lists. So there is nothing for the Malaysian government to gain from it. I will keep you all updated one way or another and I can assure you that the Lair WILL be back

FILEnetworks Blog: LeechersLair down but will return soonYou are probably tired of hearing about trackers being shut down because that’s been happening a lot lately. LeechersLair, a large General/0Day tracker that was featured on FILEnetworks Blog several times, too was forced offline by the Malaysian government due to possible copyright infringement (at the time of shut down, LL was hosted by Shinjiru, a hosted based in Malaysia). However, we learn that this will not be the end of LeechersLair – tracker staff are determined to bring the site back online, even if it meant moving to a host in a different country.
Hopefully this may give members a taste of not having LL, and may spur them to make donations.
Great to hear that! For a moment I thought the tracker would go down forever...I can assure you that the Lair WILL be back

I hope they get hosting elsewhere this is a great tracker.

Leecherslair.com
LL is back!
New server should be ready Monday and with a different name
Domain name Leecherslair.com will soon cease to exist. We will be reborn lol
"I just remembered something that happened a long time ago."
Good, now we have to redo our ratio buffer!LL is back!
I hope the script is as easy.
Even the PMR worked with their old scripts...
By the way, I now get HTTP 404 when trying to access the tracker. Hopefully this means they're moving to their new domain.

It was back (but with no torrents, no stats, etc.) when I made that post, but now I get HTTP 404 as well.
