Free Republic hijacked

Fair warning:
Do NOT update passwords until advised by FR admins that the site is back to normal.
After seeing the raft of posts, I believe that the server was either mirrored or hijacked.
I just now recalled that about an hour or so ago my screen header said 'sign in'. I hit refresh a couple of times and didn't pay any attention to it.
I now believe that those who signed in exposed their accounts.
I also had to log in after this started.
If my account post strange things and I get banned please everyone beg for me to be allowed back on.
I don’t think a regular log on will have been a problem.
The poster in that thread said something about seeing a prompt to log in without having logged off that went away and I believe the problem was gone after that.
ThankQ, MqD !!
I have over 30 different browser tabs set to FR right now.
sure it's not.
I’m just about to post my night night mountain, I hope new thread waits until morning!
Re passwords
I’ve been trying to change mine for a couple of weeks but my requests have gone nowhere
