After 3 days of being down, Fibsboard is back online.
The server was hacked and used as a server for distribution of illegal data. However, the hackers weren't very skilled since they managed to kill the machine in the second day. Unfortunately i wasn't able to fix things sooner. I'm sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused.
For now: Happy Fibsboarding :)

Hmmmmmmmm............does this mean the hack wasn't done by a fibber?  

Late or no, thanks for your efforts always, webbie!  :)

Actually, the security is fine, they used a flaw in the statistics software that i used (awstats, which was up-to-date BTW). I removed the software so it is safer now.
