Whew thought I was going crazy. This is messed up, I can't view any forums, unless I google them 1st, then go through there. I hope it gets fixed soon.

I just heard from one of the mods and they said we have been hacked. They said just sit tight until they can undo the code. They said its like a php worm or something.

Yay, so it's curable. No viruses right?

weathergirl91 · 03-18-2005, 04:43 PM

I dunno if it is curable or not.

They didn't mention if there were viruses or anything, so I have no clue. Lets just sit tight and hope for the best.

Man, they are going to get a gazillion PM's. I couldn't get in at all at first. My normal shortcut to the site just went to a giant screen of the Hacker idiot. I ended up adding the showthread numbers to get in. You don't need to google...if you start typing in the normal address, look in the dropdown, and there will be a bunch more longer addresses for each show thread. If you get to one of them, you can navigate from there. What a pain. I hope they find out who this guy (or girl) is.

Okay, that makes sense. http://www.devx.com/webdev/Article/26691/1954?pf=true explains how they work and how to protect a site from them.
