I think he's trying to automatically redirect your users to that url.

Yes, it's been going on for several days. Although I would strongly object to that being called "hacking".
It's redirect script that worked on a flaw in both the Top "X" Stats and Cyb-Advanced ForumHome Stats that has been patched by their Authors (in the case of Top "X" Stats, I believe was patched by another coder here on vBulletin.org).
It's nothing more than an ULTRA lame script kiddie attempt.
Big whoopie, inserting a simple redirect HTML script (which I doubt these kiddies could even write on their own, let alone understand the mechanism behind it) that sends you to the lamers web page that says "'1 4m 4 133t $cr|p7 k||)|)|3!!!" or some other lame bull s**t. :tired:
Seriously, even calling these lamers "script kiddies" is giving them waaaaay to much credit. :down:
I remember a day when even script kiddies would have been embarrased to use this type of nonsense. Sigh, I guess even script kiddie standards have gone down the drain. :tired:

yup he is trying trying to use an exploit probably the meta refresh exploit found in the plugin called topxstats (which is fixed already)
