The main page of OOo wiki has been maliciously modified by some spamer, who also
modified several other pages as in:

Comment 1 lsuarezpotts 2007-11-16 21:42:35 UTC

But how did the evildoer get access to a page like Main?

Hi.
Main_Page have moved to wrong page by Spammer as in:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/mwiki/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&target=Vilmis

So I restored Main_Page. I use MediaWiki mail service and sent a mail to st
about this problem.

I think should install extensions to prevent the account acquisition. This is
ConfirmEdit and FancyCaptcha. Please look at this page.

Thanks for the recovery of the content of the main page. If nobody insist on
retrieving the history we don't have to spend additional efforts on this incident.
