Benzito Posted September 25, 2005 I guess all those fund raisers didn't raise enough funds. I hope it's back soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Evil Genius Posted September 26, 2005 I haven´t logged in since months now. Such a hack seems to be a massive threat for a forum. Aren´t there any security systems to prevent such hacker attacks? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Benzito Posted September 26, 2005 Dunno EG, I'm not really 'jiggy' with the internet, but I just wanted to say I LOVE your new avatar! Creepy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
apothecary Posted September 26, 2005 It hasn't been hacked again. Chemazaki just didn't grep hard enough when he tried to rid the software of those strings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndyAmine. Posted September 26, 2005 Apoth, I dont jst get a message in the window, I cant access the website either. I get white browser window the the grey window coming up in front of it saying the alphanet line.. grrr, I want to get at my PM's!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
apothecary Posted September 26, 2005 Don't worry mate, nobody can access their PM's. Somebody needs to get onto eccles so we can sort this out. He sent me his "primary" email address, and I'd contact him if the goddamn thing wasn't in my EBA PM box Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Evil Genius Posted September 27, 2005 Thanks Benzito. I like it too. It´s the cover of the Kool Keath Dr. Octagon LP. Beats sent straight from Heaven... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
apothecary Posted September 27, 2005 quote: Hey there No nothing like that - the site was hacked *again*. the software we run is *SO* insecure it's not funny. plus it seems like php and apache are both exploitable too... so my web host has taken it down until I can fix it - since the compromise was having a serious impact on their web server. feel free to publish this mail on SAB or elsewhere so that everyone knows what's going on... cheers mate, eccles Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Benzito Posted September 28, 2005 Thanks for that Apo. Of course EG, Dr. Octagon, how could I not recognise that! That CD has been the soundtrack to many-a-k-hole for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
decoy Posted September 29, 2005 i was wondering why the version of phpBB eccles was running was so far behind the current version. eccles, if you want to upgrade the the current version, and keep it updated, i'll donate some domain hosting for you if you like.
