CNC-Source was "hacked" early this morning due to insecure upload scripts being run on the server, essentially allowing anauthorised individuals to upload FTP scripts in order to change files within CNC-Source's directories.
I am not sure if the site owners are aware of this problem yet but they have been contacted and hopefully this mess will be sorted out soon.

Gaming Source Admin

CnC-Source "upload scripts" are secure, and the only FTP script is cnc-source's and its secure(by username n password, if user's group doens't have access rights they don't get in) and there location is not known to the public, the only way to gain unauthorised access is by FTP access its self, im currently wondering why "Gaming Source Admin" cleared every file in the main directory of cnc-source (them files were actualy part of the site, there was NO files uploaded, the only file that was changed was index.php). Since i don't have backups, it will proberly b about 5-10+ hours b4 cnc-source is back(when assassin comes online at about 1am GMT). Forums and the actual downloads were deleted, everything else seems fine.
