Title: Hackers be Trippin'

Well, it happened again!  We got hacked by 404 (the hacker group that did the Malaysian airline hack)!   How did this happen?

Someone got hold of my password and installed a fake package (addon) through the admin center which replaced the main file of the forum. Oddly enough the IP address traces back to a company that's only an hour or so from here. That IP has since been banned at the server level and I changed my password.
