Glad to see that today the forum has been restored to a previous backup and supposedly the version has been upgraded to the latest version to get rid of the bad exploit the hacker used, keep up the great work kamika!

Yes, unfortunatly the latest backup that Kamika had that wasnt compromised (or felt could be compromised) was from the 17th of this month. So unfortunatly there were 2 maybe 3 days of posts lost due to the "cracker"

I'm sorry for the losts posts.
Please re-post your questions, I did not take out any question intentionally.

The last clean backup I had was form the 17th, so I set this up and upgraded to the recent version of phpbb.

Hope this was the last time s/t like this happend.

Have a nice time on the forum.
