I just clicked on the Ageod forum and it has a message up from a hacker saying he hacked their forum

+1!

They are working on getting it fixed.
Fortunately, only the main forum page has been hijacked. The forum itself still work Ok and you can read or post on it normaly.
But you have to get on it through a sub forum shorcut like the ones you have on the Ageod page (bottom left)

Cheers!

I saw that, too. But since it was in French, all I could read was "Hacked by".

It seems AGEOD has found a neat temporal solution: hijacking the main page hijacked by the hackers

Now when you go into the main forums page, instead of the hacker nonsense you are redirected to a legit forum thread where Dooya, an AGEOD colaborator, has linked all the subforums, so you can navigate and post normally from there

Hope they can clean up and recover their main forum page soon.

Actually the links weren't posted by me. Seems that someone edited my post, reading the very polite language I would guess that it was PhilThib.
