WARNING some people might/do find the content posted on the site offensive. It seems to have been hacked by some anti war group.
Doug, how about a warning next time

I did a Google on that Metlak Hacker mob and found they have hacked into quite a few Australian sites. It would seem that most hacked sites have forums but not sure if that has any insignifcance to the hacking.

They hijacked the Street Commodores site today as well. The reaction over there on the forum was *very* interesting. We are much more "genteel" here.

the scripts running the forums is the problem.... the sites are not that hard to rebuild, but if you put your forum straight back up, they will just eat you alive again..
