He attacked the TranceTribe forums, and the mods were able trace him.
Yeah I recently went onto J00f's site and Steve Lawler's too, and they've both been hacked my some idiot. You'd think they'd have better things to do.

The forums hacked lately has been attacked by a new kind of virus that uses Google to search for insecure installations of the forum software phpBB (versions prior to 2.0.11).
All forums running older versions of phpBB can be defaced easily. A phpBB installation can also be defaced if it's running on the same server as an insecure installation (on another account/domain).
Google did changes to their search earlier today to prevent the virus from spreading, but there's been coming new versions of it several times today.
Therefore everyone should upgrade their phpBB installation to v2.0.11 immediately.
Several thousand installations have been hacked so far.
