Does anyone know why Media UK has been hacked or something?

It currently looks like this:

I don’t understand why Media UK though, its not as if they insult anyone by listing TV & Radio stations is it?

media uk has been attcked by a hacker. if you follow the link it comes up with an internet thermometer, where the hacker submits the hack and the site advises you on what to do.
the site was hacked by a turkish hacker who hacks random sites for fun. media uk has now got the site back but the hacker has delited the site

Someone said to me they, the hackers, could have exploited phpbb.

Looks like someone is fixing it now.

it was a very stupid hacker, letting a site know where he had hacked and letting everyone know his ip address where he could be traced and arrested but i don't think the turkish police will think it is a offence.

It just seems so pointless. At least they fixed it quickly.
It should be an offence everywhere imo.

Interesting to note that on the homepage, there's a little section featuring most popular websites by hits in 2004, no surprise that the Adult Channel is No 1 but even more intresting is that Price-drop.tv was no.2 beating TVX !!!
