Message :Hi all,
:As most of you know we've been attacked and the database
:has been compromised with a bunch of spam garbage. I've
:fixed the code but it turned out I needed to upgrade some
:core things on the server, which I have been working on
for
:the past week.
:Unfortunately those upgrades didn't go so smoothly and I
:finally ended up getting things going in a purely manual
:fashion. That's why you may have periodically seen the
site
:either
:a) be completely down
:b) show the 'we're doing maintenance page' or
:c) get odd errors
:As of this posting, the system is running on the latest
stuff
:and it should be able to block the sql attacks we have
been
:experiencing (purely due to my lazy coding many years
ago).
:At this point the database itself is NOT fixed. Over the
next
:few days we will be manually pulling older backed up
:information back into the live database. We will attempt
to do
:this with as little loss of data as possible. However, I
haven't
:jumped into the details of this yet and there may be some
:possibility that data will be lost to fix the problem.
:Thanks for hanging in there with us and I'm terribly
sorry for
:the inconvenience.
