Khype, AMBITION, UN:SPEAKABLE and TIMELESS fan forums hacked earlier

Update: Everything is back to normal right now!

Was just checking about the new performer list this morning for the 2008 Hollywood Bowl when I realised that something had happened. The Khype forums were hacked. And not just that, apparently So Nyeo Shi Dae premium forum, AMBITION was also hacked. Then I found out that UN:SPEAKABLE and TIMELESS also suffered the same fate as they all had an hacked notice.

Apparently the malicious hacker, g00ns.net had targeted the Zetaboards servers where all the sites were hosted and hacked it out of randomness.

Now no idea why Zetaboards was targetted but hopefully security will be better implemented since so many fan sites rely on it plus Khype.com as well.
