Security exploit on the gCaptain forum

For some reason, gCaptain doesn’t allow me to post a new thread under “gCaptain” section - I’m automatically logged out when I try to view that section.

Anyway, that’s not the issue I wanted to bring up. I was looking for an older article from Google with the seachwords “louisiana” “icebreaker” and “cancelled”. There was a link to this thread, but instead I was redirected to this MyFilestore.com page (seems to be safe now - the file that was there has been removed for “breaking the rules”).

Of course, I first thought I have a virus, but it seems that the issue is on the forum side:

Could you kindly look this up in case there’s some kind of security issue on the forum and move this thread under the correct section.

things are way screwed up here, I’m sure they’re trying to get it back to what it was but I can log in or out 3-5 times and only after a day or something do I notice any result. there is not often a “reply to thread”, I use to see my post right after I wrote it but that doesn’t happen but very seldom, the “thank” option doesn’t show but I can almost always find the “reply with quote” working but you have to clutter up the pages re-sending the other guys stuff. It sure seems like a virus or something but I don’t know this subject… only enough to know what aint right!!
