I saw it, as did a couple of others. Investigations are under way, I understand.

The site hasn't been hacked (from the information I've been given anyway).
It would appear there was a faulty script on one of the servers that slapped that image in to things. The script raised an alert which had the administrators killing it rather quickly.
I've got a team of 20 guys (& a girl) checking router logs, firewalls, other scripts & files on the servers just to be sure.

I must have missed it.
Nobody would want to hack this site....unless it was the guys at Dennis because we abandoned them! Or it was an inside job.... [/paranoia]

I got it. I was just popping in to comment on the F1 and we had a black screen with "Own3d", and an Intel symbol with 'Hacker Inside'.
There was some sort of code and some 'hacker' names and "Just for Fun" somewhere- suggesting that it wasn't perhaps malicious.

So it's not x404 (Sony MkII)?

I'm gonna guess it was Bratty. But sounds like the investigation will be extremely thorough. I must've missed it, because I was busy working.

Some investigation results are back.
This site itself wasn't hacked however there was evidence that traffic was being redirected to another server from one of the ASA's. This looks like a configuration error by the tech guys who were configuring the new firewalls. Another server in the same IP range looks like it was hacked but not any of my servers (we have notified the owner of that server as they didn't know).
You can rest assured that your data is safe etc
If I here anything else I'll let you know
