I get a picture of flowers no matter what word I type, and the word I
typed underneath the pic of flowers.

I don't think it is a hack so much as an inept site which seems to
want to sell flowers.

thanks for letting me change the magnetic patterns on your hard disk.

I looked at the source code of the main site page and it appears there is some recent changes in the code;
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en" dir="ltr">

Two things: the code is being changed to an XHTML and it appears to have been created with some type of code generating software & that Never results in clean code...
It is only partially working many dead links for now. I can't really tell what the site is supposed to be about.
Best wishes.
