Watch out for a forum virus


Hey Admins,

I was just on the racekites.com forum and some kind of a hacker planted a virus and they lost all of their forum history. They still have all the kite reviews but their forum is empty.

Just wanted to put out a warning in case it can be prevented here.

Thanks for all your hard work looking after this site!!

That's really a shame. Our sympathy to racekites.com.

We make full remote raid backups twice daily in addition to a daily local backup and weekly in-house backups. No one is invulnerable on the web, but I think we're well prepared in case of such an attack.

Thanks for the heads up!
