you can't hack this forum script but leaving certain permissions open to posters
could enable what took place or an evil admin lurks within.

Buff, can your re-explain the above to stupid guys such as myself who have no idea of what you so eloquently stated to those of somewhat more intelligence?

Is Mr Davis a good guy or a bad guy?

Just want did he do to become one of the above ... and why did he do it?

Thanks, A dumb GetBigger

The hack wasnt via SMF boards - it was via something else, which changed the htaccess files.

Nothing was ever compromised on the boards at anytime, the htaccess files was not even in those directory.


But, i needed to upgrade various items, including the boards, and other parts.  Keep in mind, it hasnt been tweaked in a few years.  Oh, it will go back to yellow colors, but with new updated script and settings.
