Website "Fatal Errors"

There appear to still be some problems with the site since the hacking last night, it appears some settings have been changed again on the server and causing database connection problems. I"ve been looking into this for the last half an hour and am waiting to hear back from our webhost on whether they have changed some settings

Update
The errors keep moving but are todo with either the PHP or MySQL configurations on this server. At this point I have two soutions in mind if our WebHost can not fix it. For now, if you press refresh or start a new browser instance, you might find the errors will disappear as they are inconsistant.

Alternator Jets, Cybertron and more

Seibertron.com are reporting the following

Hasbro has shown samples of the 2005 line to retail buyers. (those are the folks that purchase the items their store will offer to sell, which is usually a corperate-wide position.)
Among the items shown were the Cybertron toys we"ve already seen via Galaxy Force. There will be more "Primes" later on down the line, besides the fire truck, female race car & dragon that we have already seen. Later toys were shown by illustration, as no prototypes were available yet. Among them: a deluxe scale cheetah.
And they were shown plans for Alternators 2005. Among them: "Suzuka Blue Metallic" repaint of Windcharger. No word on the identity and a deep red pick-up truck. No word on the make or model of the truck. And plans are being made to expand the line to the $30 price point with 1/72 scale aircraft. Average wingspan/rotor 8-10 inches.
No Universe toys were shown, and the only all-plastic redecos were as part of the Cybertron line as case filler and in the form of two store exclusives. (They did not show other store"s exclusives to this buyer, obviously, so they may be more than this from other retailers.)
Hasbro will offer comic book pack-in sets a`la their recent GI Joe 3-packs. All four two-packs shown will feature a full sized comic book from Dreamwave. They will be from various series, including one that has never aired in the USA. No price yet, but the toys shown were basic & deluxe scale.

Dreamwaves Message Board

Dreamwave"s Message board has been hit by the same security exploit as our own webhost was last night. The "hackers" are targetting a security problem in PHPBB which allows them to then attack other locally hosted websites running PHP. Anyone using PHPBB should upgrade to the latest version right away

WebServer Hack - Update

Everything should now should be back to normal, albeit running rather slowly. Our webhosts have told us that ....
From what i see in your site logs, looks like they may have triggered a php vuln which gives them access to attack the local site. I"ve now patched against this, but to be honest it just looks like you were unlucky it was your site they chose. I"d like to apologise for the oversight on our part.
So hopefull that"s it all working again

Website Hacked - Update

The upcoming events and warnings have been fixed, which leaves one problem. None of the watermarked images will load. This is because they are dynamically generated with the watermarks at runtime, which allows us to switch the placement of the watermark anywhere on the image at will as well as remove them per user to out site. The images use the PHP GD libary which has been removed since the server was re-started. We are waiting to hear when this is likely to be added back.

Website hacked

Between 6pm and 6:3pm this evening (GMT) the webserver our site is running on was hacked. Luckily we were online at the time and reported it to our webhost right away. They took down the server which is now running in a more secure mode, hence the warning and notice messages that you might have seen on the website. We are cleaning up the php code that is causing this, and things should be back to normal at anytime.
