To those of you who came to this site earlier today: No, I probably wasn't "hacked" again. It was probably a continuation of the earlier hacks. Last November, someone got into my wing of the file server…and I'm not sure how they got in, though it appears to have been through the Steve Gerber site. They installed two "cloaked" sites here — websites running off my server but hidden deep within its files so I didn't know they were there. One sold prescription drugs — especially those designed to induce erections — and the other sold counterfeit Louis Vuitton, Prada and Balenciaga purses. I thought I'd cleaned all that stuff out but I apparently hadn't. They'd also planted little "time bomb" viruses designed to bring my site down, perhaps as punishment for deleting theirs. The virus-laden files crashed me a week or so ago. I cleaned out (I thought) the time bombs. Today, I was crashed again, apparently because I'd missed something. I have deleted more suspicious files and reinstalled much software and now I think I'm clean. But I thought that before.
I'm installing additional security and scanning every damn file on the server and let's see if I've gotten it all now. I think I have but will not be surprised if this site crashes again soon. So don't you be surprised.
