Reminder for Forum owners

This post is actually a reminder to my previous blog post http://miekiemoes.blogspot.com/2008/04/forum-owners-take-your-responsability.html.

This because recently MANY phpbb forums were compromised, where malicious scripts were injected, responsible for redirecting visitors to a fake codec download site.

More detailed info here:

So once again, I can't stress enough how important it is to take responsibility if you're a forum owner.
