As far as I can tell, hundreds of discussion forums powered by the vBulletin software are facing similar problems. The visitor did not gain access to member information!
I assure you:
1. The offending IP address has been blocked at the server's root/basic level.
2. We are using the latest version of vBulletin.
3. We don't like hackers. In fact we faced a similar problem exactly four years ago, which resulted in us banning much of Asia, specifically Vietnam, from EMTLife. For now our Hong Kong members (?) won't be able to access the site. We hope to remedy this is the near future, after a few hours of sleep
As a general reminder, please make sure that your EMTLife.com password is:
1. Difficult to guess
2. A combination of letters and numbers
3. At least six characters long
4. Not the same password you use for everything else
Thanks!
