a couple of php based sites has been hacked in Oct

[CPA-Rush]

It has come to our attention that someone managed to get their hands on a database dump of the phpfreaks members table used in our forum database.

We apologize for the inconvenience and concern this may cause you.

*UPDATED*
Based on research, we believe that the individual(s) responsible utilized some exploits available in the forum software that allowed them to run a php script that dumped the data from the forum user table.

While the passwords are hashed a number of time and in many cases salted, someone who is highly motivated to do so, may be able to derive your original password, especially if you did not use good password practices.

A hash password can not be decrypted, but by generating rainbow tables, crackers can determine if your password matched one of many they may have in a database.

The table also includes your name, so it may or may not associate you with the email address you used to register
