Thanks to the not-so-helpful people at 1&1, when they moved Amibay to a new server (that magically CAN support php, wonders never cease) they write enabled the files that allowed the Blackhole exploit to hit the site again this morning.

Sorry about that, it wasn't directly our fault.

Amibay is all cleaned and protected again now, but we do intend to move to a new server in the near future.

If only Amibay would get sucked into a black hole, i'd be thrilled.

You would think that after time and time again of Amiga people hacking this site the moron admins would change their attitude and act like proper human beings instead of spying, internet stalking, PM reading, jerks.

But probably not since they havent changed on bit over the years. The original creator of Amibench should be crying himself to sleep every night that his legacy was carried on by these guys...


Can I take that as an admission of guilt on your part, Magnetic? Big words on your part, but are you prepared to be big and brave enough to name names too?

This thread is out of control. Amibay is not for all (myself included), lets leave it at that be a happy Amiga community


I'll buy that for a dollar, as long as these l337 haXX0r script kiddie wannabees who found something on Pastebin will leave AmiBay alone. Magnetic could be full of it, so I could be wrong about this.. if he's not, then we have a short list of suspects.. I'll say no more on the matter.

@ All

AmiBay isn't infected now. We are just clearing up a few damaged files but 95%+ of the site is working now.

We don't have any particular hatred for the A.org forum over at Amibay, despite what some may think. It's a different perspective here on A.org and we respect that.

Magnetic has alleged that some Amiga users (not necessarily A.org users) have chosen to attack our site with malicious software and that sort of behaviour should have no place on ANY forum, no matter what the subject matter of the forum.

If the two sites can't agree on that, then there's no hope.
