Well as our regulars will no doubt have noticed we had an attack tonight

A back door has been found in the forum software that is used on LF and that was utilised to change the front page of the site.

I have now closed the back door, overwritten the file and the site is back so apologies for the 1.5 hours of downtime, it actually only took 15 mins to fix, but i was away watching BB7 with Julie so never knew about it until i popped in to check sites Wink

Anyway traced the ip address to Turkey, checked the log files for the site and it was a textbook "Script kiddie" type attack, i.e. the person who does it probably knows less about PCs than your average Labrador but just types a command to run a script that does the dirty work for them.

So thx for the 15 mins of work spotty kid, now go back to school and try again Wink

From a proper System admin Wink
