Glad to see Indian Ringnecks is back up and running. I was beginning to get the "D T's"
Hmmmm....hackers must not have much else better to do with their life then ruin things for others.
Anyway, all is good now.

Yep all clear! Sorry everybirdy! I logged in yesterday and got a bit of a shock myself! I had my fingers crossed we didnt loose everything. Imran your the champ! Thankyou. 
Is there any way we can find out what the hack involved?
ie; what kind of hack was it? Was it a simple address hijack? Or did they gain assess to any core member lists / emails and possibly logins?
Just curious about personal forum identity and im sure there are several members here who use similar usernames / passwords on their emails accounts etc...
Cheers.

Same group.
"Snake Team" (wouldnt be overly worried).
Its a relatively minor defacing group of "hackers" if you want to call them that.
They operate out of crewz.org
They mainly deface websites to earn "credit" I guess, simply doing mediocre defacements to disrupt websites... main trend seems to be christian based websites, though they will attack other popular forums hosted by places running vulnerabilities or new exploitable techniques.

as the sql database is till intact all they seem to be doing is a redirect, also evident in the forum starts to load before being moved to the other sites.
