I haven't noticed anything wrong with my forums, and I don't remember installing anything weird. I am not professional at it or anything but I know my way around PHP and vbulletin (so I doubt I messed something up like that).

Only thing that has been different in a week or 2 ago I got some vbulletin errors (this was the email.. I got 8 in a row same minute.. All had a different image.. image is users avatars):


Database error in vBulletin :

mysql_connect() [<a href='function.mysql-connect'>function.mysql-connect</a>]: User [user] already has more than 'max_user_connections' active connections

First, how did he get you phone number? Second, if he was really gonna do as he said, he would have done it and THEN maybe called you or left his calling card on your site. Sounds to me like it is someone you know or who knows you.

Who's IP address is that in the error?

Once that we agreed on that: 'What did you do to him?'
IP: 69.89.55.55 = San Mateo, CA.

Would be easy if they have it on their domain record. Private domains are the way to go ;)

David,

Unless you have any custom code on your server (PHP) then you should be safe from any injection. The DB error is just from a restriction set by your host which you can get around if you have multiple database accounts.
