At this forum has been some errors sometimes, so maybe this virus has done something to it...?

That is one good thing about WebTV, it is immune to Viruses.

Except that 911 virus that attacked the system a few years ago(before I subscribed). Whenever a person would go offline, 911 would automaticly be called&you can imagine the surprise of the few people who got hit with this unusual Virus whenever the Cops showed up on their doorstep! Thankfully the virus got caught very soon&the person who caused it. He is serving 5 years in prison now--the despicible Worm!

Who started this Worm?
Where did it begin?

Yep, for a while this Forum had some very annoying little glitches--like posting 2 replies, not allowing people to get to Profile, having to Log-in at every entry, etc.

Was patched in december.

"santy" was just an automatic exploit, when it came i disabled access to certain "robot" useragents just in case but it should have been safe anyway sicne the hole itself was patched on dec 14.

It was a huge hole so i remember i was quite pissed

Fortunately nobody seemed to have gotten in.

Nothing else to report at this time.

Off-topic: Just a question Jens, as you're here. Can we meet in Wacken?

What? Is Jens in Wacken? Alone? Or with Strato?

I understand viruses attacking banks and rich companies and things like that, but why to make a virus that attacks a defenceless forum?

For fun.

That's hackers hobbies.

Anyway, I think that virus has attack DF forum.
