Yes. This is an ongoing problem. Unfortunately Julian is away.
Julian is away, and my guess would be that this was an SQL injection into the portal, but I could be wrong.
One of the poetry servers I'm on had a major hacking recently. The proprietors had not provided for full backups for the web site managers. We lost a lot of our work. It was very disruptive of anythking considered archived. A lot of the web sites moved to another server because of it. The real answer is, never consider your work archived on the net.
I would recommed to Julian that he give you some Admin access for this type of thing Craig. Just for those times he is not available. I Googled the hackers name and he has hacked a lot of sites. But mostly front page defacing.
