Hackers attacks on IMCs Spreading

by !
New York City, Austin, Atlanta and several other local IMC websites have been defaced by enemies exploiting a security flaw in the DadaIMC code.
New York City, Austin, Atlanta and several other local IMC have been hacked and are still down. The NYC-IMC site has been down for 4 days now.

It seems that all IMC sites may be open to attack if they allow user uploading of any code or executable file, this includes HTML with embeded Java scripts.

Here's a Link for techies on the discussion and details:
