Somewhere between about 12am and 2am (US East Coast time) the jpsoft.com site was hacked. None of the pages were changed, but the attacker somehow managed to change the .htaccess file to redirect some pages to a malware site. We have removed the offending .htaccess and are working with our hosting provider to determine how the attacker got in.
We do not have any evidence at this point that the attacker did anything more than redirect some pages. The JP Software web store is hosted on a different server, so no account passwords or credit cards were affected. Forum passwords are kept on the jpsoft.com server, but they are encrypted and we don't have any evidence yet that the attacker accessed anything other than the .htaccess file.
We'll keep up updated as we learn more.
