there is nothing wrong here, this only seem to be a photoshop or any other software screenshot modifications.

Most of changes present in the screenshot can't even be modified as an admin, and as everyone can see the forum works fine Wink

i conclude thats a fake log in script...
you might open a wrong link image and direct you unto fake homepage that was copied from forumotion by whoever it is...

some people just doesnt do good when proving something they can

hmm you know when i was in my admin panel about two days ago, i clicked to save my homepage message and the screen went white and came up with hacking attempt...very odd. Did it a few times then stopped. Couldnt have been my forum because noone knew it existed then.

WHAT! Even if I did know how to do this, I wouldn't do it on the support forum. After this happened I restarted my computer and waited 10 min and then I logged back on and everything was fine. When this was happening, all the links worked fine it was just the words and pictures were messed up. I am NOT "Playing Games" todbear.

Sorry Drag, just I have friends who do that sort of thing.
Now I know your are not joking, this is very worrying.
If this can be done here, with all the admin and experts, what hope for our sites.
I hope admin will look at this and find out what happened and who did it.
Once again my sincere apologies, Drag.

Insinuating that Drag would do something like make fake accusations is insane! I have spoken with him a lot since we met here. He is also the led moderator on one of my sites and I refuse to believe that he would do this.

Also yesterday I also had the hacking attempt message when I saved a couple things in my admin panel.

Instead of making accusations that the poster is playing games, see if there is any real validity to it.

Drag, probably it's some malware messing up your PC?

I can help you check for lurking malware if you want to...

have apologised, I am truly sorry, I have some very strange friends who would play those kinds of jokes.
I apologised to drag and he graciously accepted. I apologise to you for offending your friend. I shall keep my big mouth shut in future as I am too good at sticking both my feet in it.
Again to everyone
I am very sorry

No need to apologize, I was just trying to emphasize the point of looking into a problem instead of making accusations.

I can help you check for malware (virus spyware etc...)

Please download HJTsetup.exe:



Code:
http://geekpolice.forumotion.com/HijackThis-202-Download-h1.htm


* Save HJTsetup.exe to your desktop.
* Doubleclick on the HJTsetup.exe icon on your desktop.
* By default it will install to C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\Hijack This.
* Click on I agree
* Then Click on the Do a system scan and save a logfile button. It will scan and the log should open in notepad.
* Click on "Edit > Select All" then click on "Edit > Copy" to copy the entire contents of the log.
* Come back here to this thread and Paste the log in your next reply.
* DO NOT have Hijack This fix anything yet. Most of what it finds will be harmless or even required.
