Want to see what a hacked, anti-Israel, site looks like?
Went to one of my regularly-visited sites this morning and found it had been hacked, apparently by pro-Hamas faction:

www.emoneycentral.com

Don't understand the technology of a hacked site, so should I clear browser and reboot? Thanks for any info.

1. Yep...They Got Hacked...
Looks like the site operator didn't "lock down" this site enough. Not much to do but check back with the site every so often until the site operator fixes things.

3. Or His Server is Backed Up...
Yep...a hacker with the site password and an FTP can do a lot of damage. Hopefully the site's content is backed up on another server or the site operator has backed up things on a mirror site or offline computer. I used to manage websites and saw how both determined and pervasive hackers can be. Hopefully the site operator has learned a lesson about really locking down the databases.

5. Can you clarify what you meant by 'pro-Hamas faction'?
a joke? connection to the site?
