The site was hacked

[bimmer nut]

I had to spend most of the afternoon resurrecting it. Somebody hacked the site. My Bimmer Nut Ed account was compromised, the data base had redirects in it to this freaking site:

http: //jforjustice.co. uk/banksters

I put spaces in it so it would not link but they are

Bastards!

I have seen that, good that you fixed it. Thanks

I have of course sent a cheque for £100 to a 64 year old bloke from Sheffield with the assumed name of a desert mouse. Seriously though, what a PITA. Appreciate your time and trouble Ed.

Nice work. That was a fast recovery.

I saw the site was compromised, but what do they gain? Or was i supposed to start clicking on their stuff like a dumbass.

[bimmer nut]

They gain an extra day in hell!

I'm actually still working on tightening up security and figuring out how they got in. I've applied lots of patches, and have left some Plug-Ins turned off for fear that they allowed the intrusion.

Not sure if this is relevant but a few sites got it after updating vbulletin.
