    Exclamation OpelAus hacked

    Hi All,

    As you would've noticed, OA was down today. Some scumbags hacked into our server and planted a spamming virus, which alerted out server host who in turn closed down the forum.

    They've kindly re-activated it, and I'm now in the process of fixing the issue.
    Over the next week, OA may be down for short periods at times, as I will be doing a big upgrade of all the software. Hopefully this will protect OA from any further attacks like this.

    Thanks for your patience.

    Regards
    Paul
