WTFhacked
So somehow spammers hacked the blog and changed all my index files to contain only links to spam websites. In a fit of rage I just went through and started deleting index files from the server so now I don’t really know what I need to replace – let me know if you find any broken areas of the site.
I would love to stab those fucking spammers right now. Leaves us and our readers alone.
They got us a couple weeks back and attacked out index.php and index.html files. It’s called spam-injection.
If it’s anything like ours, we had to go into every one of those files and edit out the block of spam code.
Looks like you’re back up now though.
ryan,
yeah, they just attacked anything with the word ‘index’ in it it seems. i went through and took out all the spam from the source but it would get added back right away so i just deleted and reinstalled all the blog software. now i think its back to normal.
