    My server got hacked by some turkish hackers this morning. They replaced all index files on my sites with their files. It's been a bit of a pain. Did this happen to anyone else here?:(

    It didn't happen to me but i've seen a dozen websites that got hacked by Turkish people. All of which were phpBB.

    I've had that in the past. Annoying but quick and simple to fix.

    Well it took around an hour to fix... I guess that's not to bad. From what my host told me, it happened to ten's of thousands of servers in the United States yesterday.:eek: That's why i thought someone else here might of had the same experience.
