Yes the page was Hacked but it looks like the Web master for Altavista has 
fixed the trouble.

Anyone confirm that Altavista's home page was hacked today ?

About 
10:30 am EST I went there and found their "usual home page" included 
in a page that said hello to some hackers and had some small message 
about the page being hacked. When I got back to checking it at 15:00 
EST that page was gone and the "usual Altavista home page" had 
returned.
