    That sucks. I like visiting their gallery to see what's new.

    www.cssremix.com

    Wonder what script they are using to manage their website and if that's how the hacker got in...

    On The website it says in turkish, "As long as you have Vulnerabilities in your system, I Will be your nightmare... F**k You." Translated by me to english.

    It must have been running an opensource script or an outdated one.

    Hmm.. From the google cache,
    Cssremix was powered by Wordpress 2.1.3 , they should have upgraded to latest version.

    I hope they can get it resolved.

    What they need to do is look if the hackers left any 'back doors'. Damn hackers, why!? (rhetorical) :(

    Hmmmm...hosted with dreamhost.com, which claims they offer backups. Wonder why it hasn't been restored yet. It should only take a few minutes to restore.

    I read about this elsewhere. Basically what's going on is a group of Turkish crackers (think "black hat" hackers) are breaking into as many WordPress powered sites as possible. Upgrading to the latest version (every update), obfusciating your wp-admin directory and using a secure Web server are among the best things you can do to protect yourself.

    These are simple,
    If the website is easy to exploit, they create a simple program which auto defaces websites, Please dont ask where i got this info from just because im turkish (british actually but turkish):)

    Yes, it looks great! Glad they got it back up. Hopefully they upped WP to the latest version so they won't get hacked again.

    I don't understand why they put the version number in the header, but they do and they upgraded.
