Warning: Database Changes Expected, Outages possible

Post by paulrace »

Several of my web sites have been hacked or suffered attempted hackings.

To protect my sites, I need to update the underlying software they run on and this will likely temporarily disable the forums.

I apologize for the hassle, but I'm doing the best I can.

Hackers have struck this site twice but I was able to fix things without any break in service.

A new team of hackers is trying to hack it now. If I suddenly seem to be selling Canadian viagra or something, e-mail and let me know.
