How we know recently was hacked DNS servers of etherdelta.
Now was hijacked mtetherwallet.
Time to leave domain name service and use direct IP adresses to acces site

To do this go to the C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc
open there hosts file and add to the end
104.20.225.58 etherdelta.com
52.85.242.126 myetherwallet.com

then close and save.

Now your browser go only to set ip adres when you open both sites

I would rather not use it at all  Smiley everyone should get a ledger nano s for himself, otherwise it is impossible to safely store private keys. My ether wallet's hacking is not surprising.

The situation seems the same as it was with the DNS EtherDelta hack a few months ago.
A small number of users and regions are concerned. And there probably isn't any risk in using it, but just in case, it is better to wait until official announcement.

Thanks for the effort of posting this to spread awareness and help others to know what they should do.

But for me though, instead of going through such hassle, I think that the people using this exchange(etherdelta) and this wallet(myetherwallet) should just stop using it because clearly, there are still quite a good number of great exchanges out there and greater wallets. And also, mew can be accessed on mycrypto as well or in metamask. Just be careful always.
