PHP is Frankenstein’s Monster
[/quote]Totally off topic:
Am I the only one bothered by the new Frankenstein movie, where they constantly refer to the monster as Frankenstein?
Dr. Frankenstein created a monster. The monster’s name is Frankenstein’s monster, or simply, the monster. At no point was the monster ever referred to as Frankenstein.
Anyway… as you were. And +1 rep for you. :)

Finally someone who understand me. It is like no one has ever read mary shelley book so it is easier to call the monster Frankenstein…

Don’t believe me? How do you think the hacker got in???

Vanilla SMF is secure as the system gets and I will harden it further. We had several site modifications like SimplePortal, reCAPTCHA, the chatbox, the SMF API was used for the local Feathercoin page and there was a custom to-do list. SMF put out bug and security fixes when needed but the community development around SMF seems to be on a decline and many packages go unmaintained. Let’s keep us vanilla for the time being.
As for PHP, it’s a crazy language where anything goes :)
The site migration is now finished and the old server has been turned off an cancelled. We have a copy of the server from just before we got defaced if we need to get anything else off of it.

Forum just got downgraded to 2.0.6 from 2.0.7 following advice from the SMF team. A couple of problems were discovered in the latest version and we will wait for them to be resolved before updating again.
A bigger problem is that some of the language boards got scrambled during the move due to the export not handling Russian and Chinese chars properly. I will disable the boards until they can be restored from backup intact.
