Re: I guess we got hacked!
3.0.13 and 3.0.14 patches are in though the displayed version number will only reflect the last full upgrade.
The hack was unrelated.

Determining how the attack occurred and mitigating would be the proper approach.
Attacks can easily be automated without regard to what site is being targeted.
It likely wasn't someone with an axe to grind with BP.net, but rather someone who found a hole and exploited it.
Suggesting that we don't turn this event into some public drama about how upset or angry everyone may have been is hardly "head in the sand." What I said has nothing to do with what is going on behind the scenes...and "behind the scenes" is where it belongs, in my opinion.

This implied head in the sand to me.
Re: I guess we got hacked!
I don't think we are giving them satisfaction by talking about it....personally I would consider this thread more a "laughing in their face" conversation. Like smulkin said we didn't lose anything but time and even that wasn't enough to fuss about (well maybe for some of us). Our AT will take the steps needed to prevent such childish vandalizm again...have no ph33R!
Re: I guess we got hacked!
Hehe.
No worries - but I am obviously not going to lay the blueprints out or anything ;) I know we all had a moment of BP jonesin' while I drove home and yes i defintely had a pucker moment lol.
And yes the vector hath been verily excised and sealed.
Now back to our regularly scheduled and much beloved herpchilluns.
