Still t, that's very weird. Have you changed your password since the hack?

'truckin -

I don't see what you're referring to. You linked to a forum, not a thread. Could you link to the thread, please, so I can find it? I don't know how anybody could hack a password but then again, I'm not a hacker. I would like to see the thread you're referencing, please. Thanks!

OK. I see it.
http://www.studioeight.tv/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=4780

I've never had someone claim that their password was hacked before. This is open source software ... lots of people use it. It's phpBB. If someone hacked your password, most likely it's been done before on somebody else's phpBB board. I'll see what I can find out. Maybe I can come up with some documentation to someone else's experience.

In the meantime, why don't you just edit the post to read how you want it to read?

Also, please let me know if this happens again.

Thanks

Sorry, we didn't go into more detail when describing what happened. About 15 hours of posts disappeared when we restored the data from a backup.

What type of weird messages is she getting from you, 'truckin?

Is it possible that those messages are dated prior to the hack we had a few weeks back and she just didn't read them until now?

Did she send you the words and the date of the message? If so, can you send me both?

Yes, Zlatko, I know that first the hack somehow got into two people's accounts and then the big hack happened.

But this new upgrade of the software has safeguard protections against such things.

The last hack happened somehow through the admin panel and now an Admin has to re-authenticate our passwords to get into the admin panel.

There are other safeguards, too.

I will go to the phpBB help boards and see if any other sites are currently being hacked using this new upgraded software.

a cure for the hacking bluez

codiene is the cough suppressant of choice
while demeral will still the chills
and morphine is plainly the solution to pain
and dilaudid will give you a thrill
yet none of these can cotton to pot
yes hemp can fill your sails
and take you away to smile with the day
and sweet all one love prevails, ja!
