Default National Peripheral Neuropathy Community hacked!!

This is a warning. The website, for National Peripheral Neuropathy Community (NPNC) has been hacked. I just clicked on my usual favorites and a black screen with arabic or whatever writing and something about Alah. I'm not going back there. I'm afraid of harming my computer.

They had a hacking a little while ago and it looks like it is happening again.

I've got to do a clean up on the computer if I can figure it out.

For Billye and nancy-h: going back to the NPNC will NOT harm your computer -the hack job is not contagious. Keep checking back - Gail will have it up and running ASAP.

Default Poor Gail

It ain't Gails problem this site is getting hit, according to the National Vulnerability Database the phpBBGroup which NPNC uses is one of the easiest there is to hack. A lot of good people at NPNC and I hope them the best. If you have some spare time (a lot of us do) just do a search phpBBGroup and read the incidents of attack. And if you have some more time go to HappyHacker.org and get educated about hacking, its a safe site and will help you with your computers security. The good guys always wear white hats
