For some reason, every time I try to get on this site today, it redirects me to porn sites. It doesn't do it on Facebook, or yahoo, or PAYPAL. Or any other site that I visit often. It only happens here. What is goin on? Is anyone else having problems?

Sigh... yup we've been hacked. There goes my evening...

It seems they got in through a hole in the PHPBB software, since I am not seeing any weird user activity on the accounts or any other sites. Problem with upgrading PHPBB is that the themes don't carry over, so I will have to create a new theme or something. Fuck. Friggidy fuck. Bah.

The infection has been cleaned... will probably update the forum software in the next few days. It's going to be a pain in the ass, but it keeps vulnerabilities from cropping up.

However, I don't think the forum software was infected... I think a script instead targeted a vulnerability on Dreamhost itself. This same malware was installed on three different apps for three different users.
