A Welcome To Adam, And Patch Your phpBB Box!
Posted by Janak Parekh in "UPDATE" @ 11:00 AM
First off, please join me in welcoming our new sysadmin, Adam Lynch. He's going to be joining Jorj Bauer, our existing sysadmin, in optimizing our box and making sure it works smoothly. :)
Second, I'd like to apologize for the downtime this morning. We woke up and noticed something was wrong when Jason's account was renamed on Smartphone Thoughts. 8O Thanks to Jorj and Adam in helping us track down what exactly happened. (What a day to be a new sysadmin. :lol:)
For those of you curious and for those of you who run your own webboards: if you use phpBB, you should take note of this phpBB exploit notice and latest update and install it immediately. There are hackers on the prowl today breaking into boxes all over the place and they're installing backdoors as well.
