Well if it isn't one thing it's another, you may have gotten an email last night as we had a little breach of security. Not exactly a hack, but good enough to cause some headaches. Long story short, I did something I should have known better to do, I clicked a link via AIM and a keystroke logging program was installed. As you may or may not know, we implemented a new backup program last week which gave us a daily and a weekly offsite, I took this opportunity to try them both, both worked, we lost a couple hours worth of posts and all is back to normal. Thanks for your patience and support..... it's always something isn't it? Scott Martin |
was the keylogger that you got called wupdate.exe? as in the same as they were trying to auto download when accessing the site last night?
|
That would be the install program yea, they can pretty much call it anything they want. Run spyware killer and it will axe it.
|
I dont think i got it, firefox prompted me to install it and I didnt
|
Yea, i tried ie and firefox, both blocked it.

how do you find out about these things? is there an alarm, or does the hosting company alert you somehow, or does it take a fellow drunk NP member to slur it to you at 4am?

eyah, was pretty weird. wounder if anybody got it if they tried to log in? i didn't hit any buttons when it showed up. was kinda funny reading the messages on it though.
|
So the site just was telling me the security certificate was expired. Is this phins doing? I cancelled all of them and am posting anyway.
