Faster, better…

Much to my amazement my website was hacked by porn merchants on 6/28/08. Every .html file had a huge keyword and link list added to it. You can’t see the list of offensive words and links until you actually view source. Links appear to go to other compromised website in .at .uk and .com locations. From there the user is bounced to an attack site that does who knows what.

I reported the hacking on Sunday morning to Network Solutions but I was told I wouldn’t hear back until tomorrow. Even Gold VIP members have to wait until a regular work day.

This compromise is very disconcerting. It comes right after a series of complaints made regarding the quality of database service and right about the time the web service provider begins offering a $14.95/month hacking prevention option. I thought they were doing that anyway? It also happens after the web service provider made directory privilege changes to prevent unauthorized stuff. I do not know what to think.

The hacking method used has triggered Google to unlink DougWeb from the world. Adsense ads no longer display. This attack may have been pre-meditated or is just another porno hijacking.

I hope Network Solutions has security people on staff that can get to the bottom of this.

If you were brought here by using perverted key words in a Google search that’s why. You will not find porn here.

It may take a awhile to clean up after the attack.
