Everyone, I am sorry to say that our forum was hacked late Friday night. Malware was injected into the forum database via an exploit in the forum software. We did our best to try and remove this but unfortunately, we were not successful. The only option we had from that point was to restore the database from a previous backup.
I am happy to report that everything is working fine once again and that this hazardous exploit in vBulletin has been patched. Unfortunately, any posts from the past three days (Friday, Sat, Sun) are now floating around in a black hole.
I sincerely apologize for this inconvenience, it has been a rough and expensive weekend for us, but getting the forum back up and running was our #1 #2 and #3 priority.
Please let me know if you encounter any strange behavior (ignoring our members of course ;) )
Back online.. Enjoy!
