hardly "owned the box" he changed the footer message to be his defacement.

That's not "owned" that's a script-kiddie exploiting a poorly patched PHP-Nuke installation.

these "hackers" give proper hackers a bad name! Evil or Very Mad

really pisses me off.

but then.. a decent sysadmin woud have patched and secured the site properly.

disable stylesheets and it works fine, apart from the crap at the bottom

A ZXR owners site got hit a couple of weeks ago. Maybe this is Clarksons revenge - a new show hitting our screens next Spring.




And next week - we drive the new F60, and crash www.gixer.com

<edit> i just made up that address, and it works lol Laughing

Agreed. Thumbs Up Probably someone guessed a password and pasted a bit of code into a template. Rolling Eyes

On the bright side it's an easy fix.
