We've been hacked
Un-phuking-believable, we've been hacked:
Lifesupporters.com
The main site may be down for a few days because I'm going to work with my webhost to find out exactly who did what, how they did it and how we can help put it to a stop. |

Re: We've been hacked
I took a backup of the forums before going to work tonight so I'm hoping the forums stay online at least. As for the main site, I sure hope last nights backup worked or I may have lost all that work.
Luckily we're still up and running but for how long is anyones guess right now.

Reason: Edited site name so as not to link back.

Re: We've been hacked
I don't want these tards to get a linkback from this site so I'll be editing any posts that actually mention their name.
They've not only taken down wolfgaming.net but also nukemods.com so I'm starting to wonder if it's a php issue at the server level. As I said before, we're still up and running but it may not be for long.
The only difference between nukemods, wolfgaming and lifesupporters is that I'm using vBulletin without VBA installed. Hopefully this is enough to keep us online but I have my doubts.

Re: We've been hacked
I hope you are able to find the scumbags soon. I wish people would just mind their own business.

I actually managed to keep the old site hack free on phpnuke for over 3 years. Also, gamemoviemaking.com and the other sub-domains are all untouched and they are phpnuke so it can't be all that bad. Of course, I don't use standard phpnuke, I only use 7.6 patched up the ying yang with chatserv patched series and nuke sentinal protection software.
As for finding the scumbags, I know who they are and have visited their site, the problem is that there's usually nothing you can do to get these idiots in trouble. |

Re: We've been hacked
What we really need is an internet policing agency that goes after idiots like this. It's not like their untraceable, it's just that prosecuting these tards rarely, if ever, happens.

Re: We've been hacked
Yes, but until that happens, I don't mind if someone spreads some cement shoes, for idiots like that.
