Site Down

As you all may have noticed, the site was down. I am unsure how long it was down for as I am fighting a cold. Everything is upgraded and should be working. Please let me know if I missed any modifications.

So...

Something/someone zapped the settings.php file for the forums. Everything is back to normal now (I think). And if I find out who did it, there will be a ban involved...

The plot thickens?

". . .  We know nothing about them, their language, their history or what they look like.  But we can assume this.  They stand for everything we don't stand for.  Also they told me you guys look like dorks. "

I might be wrong but I feel like every since it all went down and back up, there's a second "Download Aurora" at the top, on the line with the Home, Help, Unread Posts, etc.
Currently I see: Home, Help, Download Aurora, Unread Posts, Download Aurora. I think the first "Download Aurora" just used not to be there, I keep clicking it when I want to see Unread Posts. I'm using the default themes and stuff, too.

There is. I need to figure out which it is and remove it again.

Seems like some things got deleted in several threads, mainly in the C# Change List, with a "Last edit" date shortly after the original post time when I definitely remember seeing said post long after that.

No database changes were made when I fixed the site. Unless there were some odd apostrophes laying around. That might have an effect.
