Welcome back CodeCall!

You may have only been held hostage for less than 24 hours, but you were greatly missed.

Nice work on getting the site back up.

Yeah it's nice the site is back up, but it looks like it lost about 48 hours of form data :(

Example:
My post count was over 50, but now it's under as u can see.

Yeah, it appears the backup was a few days old. I had just over 50 as well, and I noticed a thread in the Python section that had several posts was empty other than the original message.

*Cough* Cracking, thank you very much. Hacking rules, but those sad little douches who waste their time breaking things try and take the "hacker" name away from us.

Please refer to:
(I know I'm not supposed to post links, but I had 10+ before...)
catb.org/~esr/faqs/hacker-howto.html#what_is

Crackers are usually retarded little douchebags who aren't skilled enough to become real hackers, so they memorize the few and simple steps required to deface websites, to boost their pathetic little ego's.

Cracking is pretty easy. Anyone who's read "The web application hacker's handbook" could break into this site. But to be a hacker, to code and truely innovate, requires the skill these douches don't have.

I had to remake my account again, seems like the back up was around 1 week ago, maybe more.

Ironic that a programming forum got hacked, but at least it's back and running again, hopefully a nuclear explosion reduced the pc of the hacker to ash!

Oh wait, I mean cracker/crack x3

"50,000 programmers fail to protect site from cracker"

It's not like any of us were really trying to protect it. More than likely it was probably a dumb vb hole or something.

Hopefully our passwords were not compromised. I know that VB holds them in md5 form with a salt, but I changed mine just in case.

If they know the salt (which since they had access to the source I'm sure they do) it's probably just as easy to get as without the salt.

You should checkout my password creating tutorial. :] Very useful for things like this.

Good thing I took a screenie for historical reasons. If you missed out, this is what happened to CodeCall:
