You guys got hacked
« on: September 04, 2010, 01:11:47 PM »
Yesterday, the entirety of freebasic.net was down. Beneath this forum there was a long list of links to shopping sites in Google's cache. It looks like somebody was up to no good. Why would anyone want to attack our innocent forum?

I wasn't hacked, it was my host. And world is full of jerks.

Unbelievable! Well, maybe if the project becomes big enough, you could host your own servers, like at a university or something. The Linux project is still up.
