Popular internet forum hacked
The Irish internet forum boards.ie has been hacked and tens of thousands of users' information may have been compromised.
The website is currently displaying a message with advice for members on what to do.
The main concern is that hackers would be able to match usernames with email addresses.
But the website insists subscribers' credit card or financial information was not hacked.
Gardaí and the Data Protection Commissioner have been informed.
