>From their web page:

    We have confirmed a good hack. We're compiling details now, look for
       them first in the security forum and then posted to the site.

Reading through their forum a bit, it seems people are complaining that
the NT box was set up by a seasoned veteran of NT administration, while
the linux box was basically a stock install. Further, the linux box was
not hacked, but defaced via a poorly written CGI script. This said based
on user feedback on the forum.
