Same server, as you can check with nslookup.

Different server.

I hope that they go public with what has happened, based on the screen dump they where hacked. And I would really like to know what has been done to succed to do so on an OS2 system. Either bad password handling or really a nice hack.

I am glad it is back up again. It would be nice to know that they are doing something to keep it from happening again.

It seems to be due to old versions of apache and/or php. The hacker (maybe better: script kiddie) probably used well-known vulnerabilities to replace index.php

See for yourself: http://dev.ecomstation.com/ still has the 'hacked' index page, but http://dev.ecomstation.com/topics.php still exists.

I do agree, however, that they should open up on this. Preferrably on the front page of the website.
