Hypothesis: Wasn't one of the reasons Wayne moved away from Xoops the presence of some significant security holes? Maybe the AW.net server is the weak point. Is anyone in touch with the admins over there?

Fortunately, the only other place I'm registered is Morphzone, and my password there is so convoluted that even I can't remember it!

Just did a passwd Matt_H, nonetheless.

We are still investigating the possibility that this site was compromised directly though I so far nothing untoward has been spotted.


Maybe it was an inside job! Cue the melodramatic music and unusual zoom-in effects! :lol:

Who is trying to hack Amiga sites anyway? Atari ST users?


No, unfortunately this is most likely one of our own homegrown nutcases.
