Getting redirected to Hostbul.net???????

Post by TheTruth »

Is everyone else getting redirected automatically?? I have to time my "stop" button to stay on DSP each time I go to a new dsp page.
Jared?

Fixed. Not sure how it happened, but someone injected a link to a foriegn hosting site with a referral code in one of the footers. I'm looking to see if some security features that were activated in the old site aren't on the new site...or if this is just some new hack that I'm unaware of.

Sorry abou the problems...I'll try and figure out the source and ways to stop this from happening again.

Well, I've found out (sort of) who did it...and even sites that this hacker owns.....hmmm.....I'm wondering what I should do. It's a kid in a foriegn country. Any ideas?

I don't think you can do a damn thing to people in a different country, can you?

Not sure...although I also have information that this kid owns/administers another website. Might be able to get that shut down. Will be looking into this.

First thing though, is doing some security stuff here. I might be doing some site upgrades either now or later tonight. I'll warn everyone if/when I do this.
