Hacked!
Hey Everyone,
So as some of you know I was hacked over the long weekend.  Sorry for the delay in fixing it but I was out of town so didn't know I was hacked. AND....  I couldn't figure out how to "un-hack" it... or how to fix the hack.
So a few details. The hacker was some cyberroot person. Not exactly sure how they gained access to my files but all that was done was a simple index.html file was added to my folder. Then when you went to my webpage it read the .html file rather then the .php file.  I simply deleted this file and it works now.  ?!?!
I also went and changed the permissions of the folder which were set at 777 (read, write and excute for everyone) to .... 755.... which is the normal website setting. I'm not sure if I set that at one time (doubt it) or the hacker set this.
Anyway, all is good and well (hopefully). So it should be business as usual around here. Although, now I've already missed the customer appreciation day at Safeway and it's Wednesday so a little late for deals of the week.
