In today's (Wed) Star, there is a report about the Santy.A computer virus.
Basically, it exploits flaws in open source web scripting language, exactly the type used in this forum
phpBB
and is probably what happened when we couldn't access this earlier.
The FIXED version is available (to Jason) and is version 2.0.11. This board is currently using version 2.0.6 and should be updated.
Jason, be advised.
Read about it here:
