Well - I got the Anonymous e-mail tonight from via Brent at Club Cobra. Seems like CC got hacked. When I try to go there - I see the re-direct to a british website, and then I quit.
Not good.

Very strange hack.
I use a program that loads all my favored sites. Hit the button for it and up comes the google page saying it can't load some goofy British page. Typed in the correct URL for ClubCobra and it goes right where it should have.
Did I just hit the server at the time he was correcting the issue?

I searched the hack. It was an admin hack then re-directed the site. While in the admin control panel, the hack finds e-mail addresses of users and sent out the e-mail message to users. It's a very complicated hack to get in. Once in, they apply a re-direct to the site. Actually, they did no harm and it's easily repaired. However, once in the admin they could wipe out the site. They could also attach a virus to an e-mail. The whole thing sucks.
BTW - we use the same software for our forum.
It's the Anonymous group that you may have heard about in the news.
