I just logged into the website above, tried doing a search and it said the recapate-something image was verified then i spotted the ph. at the start? Is this some kind of phishing site?! Eek

It might be owned by ubuntuforums.org, and so set up as a clone, however I wouldnt log in there.

If I remember correctly - The forums actually accept anything .ubuntuforums.org

Naturally, I wouldn't recommend that you log in there (if only just to be on the safe side). Though try it out http://joeb454.ubuntuforums.org

Our benevolent founder :lol: apparently also registered ubuntuforums.com when he put this site together and set it up with a redirect. The dot-com URL redirects to http://ubuntuforums.org and you can put pretty much any subdomain name in front of ubuntuforums.org (for instance, http://fostergrant.ubuntuforums.org) and it still works.

So no matter where you go, here you are.
