The reason why this board is dying

Post by **alx5962** » Fri Sep 02, 2005 9:13 pm

It so sad to know that board could die only because someone very stupid hacks it again...
And so bad that a webhosting company is not good enough to protect its own servers !

The hack has been because of a leak in the phpbb script.

Why does anyone want to hack into this board anyway?

I have absolutely no idea. I think this board is quite uninteresting for others to hack.

Could it be jealousy...by someone whose alternative board wasnt so successful ?

Just a thought...i'm not making any accusations.

Barrett I believe that's not correct.
The hack was done by someone with knowledge of the Spanish language according to some message i've seen appearing.

Why - of course not!

It's most likely just some bored teenagers attacking random boards.

My Institute's web page was hacked some weeks ago as well.

It's just that I think I'm the only one here who speaks spanish ...
just wanted to make sure and stuff

I'm not suspecting anyone of this board.
But I do know that on the servers of my hostingcompany are some controversial Dutch weblogs. They might try to reach them through a leak in Phpbb. [:xx]
