Comodo forums = Google UK ?

I can get there with this

http://forums.comodo.com/index.php

but not with your link.

 

It appears that the google search page is in the index.html file in their webroot, as this link provides the same result.

http://forums.comodo.com/index.html

The forum is of course accessed via index.php in that directory. Their webserver may have index.html take precedence over index.php, which is a configuration option in the webserver software. If they switched it to default to index.php instead, then going to just http://forums.comodo.com/ would yield the forum, and not whatever their webmaster is probably working on in the index.html file.


Edit - the following is a pure guess as to how something like this happens accidentally...

You are the webmaster of a site. You are working on the server at the command line. You happen to change directory to the webroot. While working in there you decide to either browse around using something like lynx, or you do a wget to pull some file or files from somewhere. While doing this, you pull down a file called index.html, which since you are in your webroot, becomes visible to the world because of your webserver configuration options.

My guess... the site is not hacked. The webmaster accidentally pulled down a foreign index.html file and didn't realize the effect it would have, having it located there. Solution - delete the file: index.html (or, if they had a previous index.html there that was overwritten by this, restore it).

 

Thanks for that explaination LWM.

Perhaps you should also post it here as they are wondering about it .

I'm not a member there, but please, anyone who is, feel free to let their folks know.

 

It appears to have been fixed now.
