not very happy at the moment i thought i had all the security setting just right, and i got hacked tonight.  i have a service ticket in and i managed to get a static page up to explain we are down but they really got me good, seems that they used some sort of forcing technique to upload some files, im getting it restored but not sure how long admin from exploited accounts will take to do that..

i dont think they got to the db or any customer info, and it really upsets that with all the security that lp offers us on their servers and all the settings i had, they still got me.. i certainly dont trust any of my site files at the moment..

i asked them to investigate so maybe i can file a report with the US Attorney General Cyber Crime Unit...  well whoever did it better hope i never find them...

thanks katrina1 no i have not but im looking now i appreciate that,   i have noticed for the last week or so that my error log showed a ton of hits for file does not exist for a directory and strange file names that never existed on my site, do i dont know if some one was running a script on the site looking for vulnerabilities or what...

honestly i dont even know how anyone does this kind of thing, i mean tech wize, they obviously didnt get my pw or anything because all they did was upload a crap load of junk files and overwrote my other ones so i have to  replace the whole site as i dont trust any of the files now..   but i dont know how anyone tech is able to upload files without loggin in...    is it something that they hit lp server and im just an innocent bystander or is this something specifially entended for me....     and i know its not a good idea to talk about how on here, im just venting...  i appreciate it....

my immediate concern is that it has been 8 hours now and no reply from tech support, not even a hello, all they did was xfer the ticket to a dif dept but never even commented, and i have customers waiting....

so i dont know if i should wait for them to restore or just upload a the files i have and start again... 

Ticket #1914535    thanks

sorry i forgot to mention above that i really appreciate your help....   peace and bless you...

thanks for that, i worked really hard on taking something that was pretty much abandoned and turning it into something that was really great and had a ton of features....   

that is a very interesting article, and it does explain the issue, there is no other version that i know of, it appears to me that they have pretty much abondonded the forum on their site and the software itself, im not even really sure why they even keep the site up, there is no indication anywhere other than the current footer that they are even still upgrading the software at all that i have seen or found...

i really hate to start from scratch and im torn between two feelings, one is that im not sure i can trust this totally because of the data sanitasion issue, but yet i have come so far i dont want to start over...

i suppose the bottom line and the one question i should ask... can i put my name on what i offer and sleep at night...

i thought i could with this but now i really get the since that the only way for me to sleep and night is to put in the hard work and hours and do it myself, at least that way i know its pure inside and out....  i must admit im pretty deflated at the moment but im not gonna give up, one way or the other i will get this done and be proud to put my durangodaves company logo on it.

thanks pete and i wave back
