Updated: Board Gets Hacked !

Posted by:

Due to an attack, our board was hacked and redirected to another site. We are currently working on this problem. The board was taken down since when it was hacked they also sent an email out to every person on our mailing list. We are moving our boards from PHPbb to something much more secure. If you are using PHPBB we suggest you do the same.

We have the complete information of the user who hacked our website and will be forwarding it to our legal team that handles legal issues for MoviesOnline and see what action we take from here. To those of you who were emailed because of the hack we appreciate your understanding and patience.

Please do not post on the Hacker's board. We want to deal with this in a mature way regardless of what happened. Spamming a board does not represent our style, and it isn't an effective answer. We are a friendly group, and lets keep it that way. Dont spawn hate just because of one bad action. One evil does not justify another. If anything this is a live and learn situation. We learned that PHPbb is not secure enough, and are moving on from it.

Our new board will be up and running very soon! Want to thank Macready and Dead-Central for letting me know about the problem and their assistance on this matter.

THX for your Patience.
