At around 9:30am EST today our forum service provider sufered a large website defacement attack across 1000's of web sites.

The service provider is working to restore files from a backup, which appears to have now fixed the issue.


Once I re-gain access to the server I shall perform my own restore.

Tis nothing to worry about, they meerley replaced some of our files with thier own.
