Anybody a member of their forums receiving e-mails to that effect? The address I'm receiving them too is solely one for their forums, which leads me to believe it's true, especially as the forums are now inaccessible.
Update:
No more news from HU on this yet, however HEXUS does now have an article on the matter:http://www.hexus.net/content/item.php?item=6508In what can only be seen as an embarrassment to any company, Hosting-Unlimited, provider of web hosting solutions, appears to have had its own forums hacked.
On the evening of Wednesday 16th, members of the Hosting-Unlimited forums started receiving mail outs from the forum's mass mailing facility, containing a proclamation that the site had been hacked. It is believed that the forums were powered by vBulletin.
