    It's just a javascript alert? Maybe the search / post forms are insecure?

    Kids, amateurs

    Too much potential for drive-by downloading/malware which was wasted on a defacement

  • You're pretty much spot on @doughmanes

    They really need to sort this out, they have their unhashed passwords leaked atleast twice a year...

    Ugh. I have to change my password now and all, and probably a few others since it's similar to others..

  • Decided to just opt for a stupid password now.

    Last time they never even emailed us about the intrusion... I think I made a post here.

    why do people still use personal passwords instead of generated passwords using 1password/keepass, etc?
