I got a bunch of db errors last night, they all looked something like this:
Database error in vBulletin 3.8.2:

Invalid SQL:
SHOW COLUMNS FROM vB36_user LIKE 'username';

MySQL Error : Got error 28 from storage engine
Error Number : 1030
Request Date : Tuesday, September 8th 2009 @ 12:22:16 AM
Error Date : Tuesday, September 8th 2009 @ 12:22:17 AM
Script : http://www.bloodbanktalk.com/forum/register.php?do=addmember
Referrer : http://www.bloodbanktalk.com/forum/register.php?
IP Address : xx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Username : SitPultytiese
Classname : vB_Database
MySQL Version :

The IP addresses were from the Ukraine, the Russian Federation and a few other European countries.

Was this an attempt to hack the site, and if so, is there anything I can / should do?

Thanks

Error code 28: No space left on device -
One or more partitions on your server is out of space or doesn't have enough space to complete this operation. You need to shutdown your forums and contact your host immediately. You or your host will need to find out which partition is low on disk space and either add more space or free up some.

Ugh, thank you. I've contacted them.
