Is our details safe then? Serious question, can they access the apps etc on my iPad through being on this site? Genuine question.

Many of these attacks are automated, using well known exploits and password lists.

The attack was on web front end, WordPress rather than the forum software phpBB. Two separate systems so wouldn't panic about personal data just yet.

Thanks gshaw. I am amazed that you were looking at something like that in the first place, never knew it even existed either.

Which one of the youngsters hacked the old board? Can't remember if it was NU, Heymessy or Caca?
Must be coincidence that the board gets hacked as soon as Caca has taken over......
