Why are they hacking this particular forum? If it were something big like Pistonheads, I could probably understand but this little place?

What happened was that I had reopened safari and rather than get a direct link via mail I opted to type x404 in the box and usually it will send me to the front page. On this occasion I took a screen shot and closed the window. The forums were back up within a few minutes so not sure what happened.

They've left the forum alone, they're just defacing main pages by the looks of things. I'm guessing it's either practice or they're trying to get control of the whole server to use for something else like spamming etc. We're a small site but the server's pretty decent.

I've no idea what sort of hacking they were doing, but any sites I'm responsible for tend to be targeted by people looking to either send spam or host the phishing pages for spam. They don't care about the size of the site, they just need an exploitable server.

Is there anything that we can do to help? Just found out that the link that was targeted was http://www.x404.co.uk I hope that helps. It is all okay now.

Google Streetview Captures Public Handjob in Manchester, England NSFWObviously a few NSFW pictures. It is on a normal US news site but they are clearly confused by English lingo.

It could be anything, but I have seen worse as well. Couples shagging in an alleyway or on the beach. Brighton beach during the summer has loads of couples at it during the summer, especially over the weekend.

My mum was planning to fly over and see her parents over Easter, especially as they've been frail more recently. Her dad's just died in hospital. Whilst I loved him, I didn't see him much because of distance and hence it hasn't fazed me much. Seeing my mother cry like that...was horrible. She never got to say sll the things she wanted to say.

Given we lost the game in question to them, I should be upset but... feck it, I think the bloke deserved to have a good day.

I am not a football fan but I thought that the player was brilliant to do that.
