To let you all know..Kodetech got hit in the database in four places. Hackerzoft turned off all the blocks, changed the 'God' password and removed another superuser and replaced him with thier own username and password, sent out email to members meaning they got into the users table, and changed the last message to reflect their own message. This I believe is all we could find. The site is back up and running once again and 'Protector System' is installed and working just fine.
We do not know how or where they got into the site but once I saw what he had done it was only a matter of about an hour to get everything turned around.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused our members We have a strict policy on members information and we regret any members information getting away from our site.
The one question we do have regarding members information is 'does the fake email address work against spamming' ? If it does I'll hardwire an alias email address we have that is just for junk mail.
Again we apologize for any inconvenience.

No inconvenience at all, Michael, we are just very sorry it happened to your site.
It was kind of scary to see the results, a bit like that feeling of violation you get after being burgled.
It's time for FB, NC and the rest of the nuke support community to put 100% maximum effort into security and forget the "upgrades" for the time being.
