Corel took down the Board and upgraded the software. And though we would have preferred it if they had used an even more up-to-date version of the same software, it at least is up and running, and seems to be quite fast ... so far! :roll:

It would be nice to have an email warning, but just happy it's on again.

You're right. It would have been nice to have some warning. Not even the admins or mods were notified. We were as baffled as everyone else.

Things are working great at the moment. We can only keep our fingers crossed that it will stay that way.

Corel are of the opinion that the Web Board was attqcked by a spammer trying to get in. They have now upgraded the Web Board and there is a strong likelihood it will be upgraded to PHPBB3.
