Title: Our web sites got hacked...
Post by: Paddy on September 04, 2006, 03:34:00 PM
Durned Turkish hacker with nothing better to do has wreaked havoc over at Lunarpages.com - many of us who have sites hosted on one of their servers found ourselves with no web sites today. Instead - a black page with a Turkish flag and Iskorpitx' sig...

I've posted a temporary page on my site, but here's what we're all seeing:

http://fabprefab.lunarfun.com/ (warning: the owner may fix this)

We're in good company - since 2003, this creep has hit more than 117,000 web sites. In May, he hit over 21,000 all at once.

Iskorpitx strikes again

Nobody yet knows how or what he did to get in this time.

Just what I needed the DAY BEFORE SCHOOL STARTS with zillions of parents trying to look up lunch menus and bus routes. ARGH.

Poor you.  What a bloody nuisance.

Good luck.  Our schools went back last week and so far, my daughter has managed to catch the right bus!!!

Hi Paddy,  I was curious, so looked at your page, what a bummer.
But after about 60 seconds, this page came up, plain black, but then this box appeared!

Thats really odd, I wonder what this guy is doing?  This site looks innocent too.
