We were hacked

[basskiller]

and some malicious coding was uploaded to our files.

I had to rewrite all files and while I was at it, I upgraded to the latest release of Vbulletin.
This also meant that some of our modifications became malformed. There may be others that I haven't found yet.

one was the Private message encryption. I had to reinstall the program which means
All your old messages will no longer be able to be read.
If you never believe that we encrypted our PM's here..Just go and try to read an old pm that was sent to you. They're encrypted with the old algorithms and now are unreadable to even you.

anyone that has sent me a pm within the past day or two, You will need to send it to me again

everything should be cool for now

I got the Bulletin message that the board was down for upgrade. Everything is cool now though.

Who would hack our board and why?

[basskiller]

I had to turn the board off or you could have been infected

It wasn't a virus, but a redirect to a site that could be harmful to your computer


here is part of the code.. Do not go to this site

<iframe src="http://specialgt.com/"
