Firstly, I would like to sincerely apologize for the amount of time it took to get the site fixed. As of now, it seems that Chvy has removed the exploits and got the site back on its feet, so a round of applause to him! Malware errors still might persist until browsers and/or search engines recognize that the exploits have been removed. Spread the word and let's get ModHalo members back here!
Back!

I don't know, sorry.Any account info stolen? also nintendo thing made me giggle more than i think is normal.
I don't really know where the attack originated from, but any kind of administrator password has been changed, and the forums have been upgraded to the latest release (though I've always been pretty good about keeping them up to date...)Whats to stop it happen again?

With the passwords changed and such we should be good to go. The database doesn't seem to have been touched so I don't think any information was taken, but if you're feeling worried you can always change your password (I did). As always, there is security risk for any website. There's nothing stopping any of your other favorite websites from getting attacked, so let's not get too worked up over this. And, now that we know how to fix the issue if we were to get attacked again it should be fixable within about a half an hour.
Also, it looks like the Google malware warning is gone. Hurray!

VXP made his own OS. It must have been for hackers.

VXP never made hacking related threats towards Modhalo, or its members.
