Thumbs down My IPB forum was hacked!

Hello,

My Invision Power Board forum with 9,500 members has been hacked a few days ago! The hacker was from Serbia and he could access any account he wanted by resetting passwords via a flaw with the password reminder script!

I paid a coder to disable the script, and now its fine. He had deleted the forums but it was a waste of time for him since i had a backup
