Dear Users,

Sorry for forum being down, it was due to an attack from a hacker.

He hacked the admin password, turned off the forum, changed the admin email so that password could not be retrieved, and inserted a link in the front page text to a flash hack intro singing: "Im a poor lonesome cowboy...".

I extracted the sql data and changed the email address uploaded the sql file to the mysql server, retrieved password, replaced the altered templates with the correct ones and rebuilt the forum style.

I also got a whois on the hacker, and have his email address his ip address, and even address, but I will not tell on him if he doesnt do this again.

Hope this hasnt taken too long.

Best wishes,

aRt.

Good Job!
