If the hackers are really russian as the new index screen would seem to indicate, then id definatly avoid anything from that site, and most certainly NOT click on the link the hackers provided.

Russian spyware, viruses and the like are the bloody worst. Pick up one of those, and i garuntee you, if you have any valuable data that prohibits wiping the disk and reinstalling, you'll spend the next month trying to weed the bloody thing out of your system, IF you ever FULLY get it out.

No viruses on their site as it seems.

Ducimus · 07-10-06, 01:08 PM

Sir Big Jugs · 07-10-06, 01:08 PM

Oh yes. I've noticed it.

Sir Big Jugs · 07-10-06, 01:12 PM

It'll be fun to see if they will answer an anonymous email!

I've been virus attacked so many times I'm used to it.

System recovery is easy when you learn.

D'Ya guys ever think that Subsim.com Forums will get hacked?

It won't if there's a mine field to stop them along with anti virus nets, air patrols, coastal batteries, and a good blockade to stop them.
