Hacked meaning that they, the badguys managed to ftp a folder full of
porn to one of my subdirectories and its still a mystery how they did
that exactly. The ISP claims they took advantage of an exploit in the
php code but has no data to support that claim thus far. So, I can't
say that the site authorization was compromised with any certainty.
