Gutting, it just goes to show how important keeping your server and serverside executable content up to date is. Any old idiot can pretty easily google the techniques required to hack out of date forum and webserver software ;[.

Nice rant, care to elaborate?

One of the problems with making techy stuff easy enough for noobs to use is well, noobs start using it. Hackers generally only come in through the door you leave open. Stop your bitching and restore from your backups.

Aww fuck. Tossers. It's happened to a couple of my sites. Regular backups are the only defence. Who the hell has time to apply all the patches.

Jesus, some of you guys are harsh. Not everyone's a bloody sysadmin or have the skills to find the security holes in whatever forum implementation or web-server software they're using.

Comments like "stop bitching and restore from backup" are really helpful.

This is rant or rave isn't it just thought it may provoke some help or suggestions and it's a friends site so thought he may appreciate any tips on protecting his hardwork

i don't wanna argue or get befuddled with computer jargon i don't understand.... i'm too tired for that this week
