I am closing down the above forum due to the fct that we have been hacked and I don't trust them, if they can do it once they will do it again and my members are very uncomfortable posting now. So those of you that are in my forum, please contact me on

Hi there

As long as the passwords of any of the admin account/s are not obvious, or given out to anyone then the accounts cannot be cracked. The protection on the software is such that they cannot gain access any other way except correctly guessing or knowing a password.

hels, wasn't it you who they hacked through last time as well, or was that someone else?

Re: PLEASE READ - Posted By heather (heather) on 24th Nov 08 at 1:22pm
yes it was Hel's the last time, it has only happened the once Dwight, but we thought we couldn't take any more risks!!! I have just trailed through all of the emails Hels and I sent and my number and address is on the PM's as is Hel's Anyway too late now, I think trust has gone and not sure of anyone wants to come back on to the forum after what has happened!!! Perhaps Hel's and I can ask them, with the assurance that it is completely safe now!!! {Unsure}
