MOC - Hacking attempt

Postby lankyjames » Sun Feb 24, 2013 12:52 pm

As had been mentioned on the midascars Facebook page, the MOC web host (UK2.net) suffered an extensive hack via 'Anonymous' turns out it was just the Algerians!

You may have noticed the main webpage was changed to something completely unrelated, with a flying Algerian flag and link to their Facebook page...

This change occurred at 3am this morning and had been rectified by 1030ish with no loss or stolen data to report!

Edit: Would also like to add the fix was completed while away from a computer, would be lost without my smart phone!
