Recent Downtime

[Admin]

Hello everybody!



I apologize for the recent downtime that was experienced yesterday (5-20-05). I regret to tell you that this forum was hacked into yesterday (by who I do not know) and much of the forum was damaged. Fortunately I have been able to get everything, except for the forum template, back to normal working order; I hope to have the template re-installed sometime between today and Monday.



To prevent any future hacks of this forum I plan on installing/upgrading to a newer version of phpBB that has increased security. Looks like my new update for the website will have to wait yet another week since the forum will be tying up much of my free time over the next few days (I just can't win here).



Just thought I'd let you all in on what is going on with this forum at the present time - if you have any further questions, comments, etc. please feel free to post here or send me a private message.

Well, the template didn't take nearly as long as I though (it only took about 10 minutes, I wasn't aware that most of the files were still there - saves me time) so that's all ready to go. All that's left is updating to a newer version of phpBB.

Yes, phpBB boards in particular are always under attack. I hope that we aren't cracked into again...
