We've been HACKED
I hate to say it, but on the HO HO HO thread a lot of people seem to be
posting some weird stuff, and I know it's not them, because it's getting posted to de.alt.test, and bit.listerve.test Charles of Kankakee |

I'm not getting anything through my Yahoo groups. Yet. I'm sure these (expletive deleteds) will try. Charles of Kankakee |

The Shoptalk Forum was hacked a month ago -- finally was fixed last week
only to be hacked again - http://www.shoptalkforums.com/index.php Think they need some help from a certified sys admin that is aware of security settings, configuration and application of patches!

It was definitely done by a script kiddie who doesn't know what he is doing. The index1.php that was supposed to work has a bug in it. But you are right. The sysadmin has some well-known holes wide open, probably the demo directory left wide open. |

********** The Yahoo groups are totally independent of, well, I guess *everything* else. At TalkAboutAutos they just script in the Usenet group. (Haven't checked their code to see if it tells me how, yet.) ~ Paul aka "Tha Driver" Giggle Cream - it makes dessert *funny*! |
