It took a few more hours and the weeworld website was up and running again. It took another few minutes and the website was completely down (probably by weeworld IT). It gave the feeling that this is a hack in progress and the hacker is going through all of their servers and changing the landing pages (index.aspx). When I refreshed a minute later, this server gave me the hacker page as well.
This likely happened, and I’m only guessing here, cause their load-balancer served me with a different weeworld server, one that hasn’t been hacked yet.
To my surprise this is the page that was loaded:Īfter rechecking that I got the URL right, I opened the website in IE as well and got the valid weeworld website. I went to checkout, a cool avatars creators which recently released a nice new feature for theire avatars called weeRooms.
But, what are the chances you’ll get to see that, as it happens, on a large website. You always hear about these stuff, a website has been hacked and its landing page has been changed by the hacker. Menu Seeing a website being hacked in real time 28 September 2007 on Miscellaneous, Web 2.0
