    vBulletin security issue

    PCG forum is down awaiting a patch.

    Is this site not vulnerable? Or is this some clever ploy to out MF's sockies.

    vBulletin's own site got hacked, resulting in user details and (hashed) passwords being compromised.

    Maybe PCG use the same password for their forum admin control panel as they used on the vB forum
