Doughtyuk.net hacked again
 

:mad: :mad: :mad:
There a pain in the arse

You beat me to it. Just PM'd Chris to ask whats going on? Dunno if he knew yet or not:wtf:

and for a split second as the site loaded, i thought "that's cool, Chris has changed the colour scheme"

Lame arse hackers, wish they go play on the runways at Heathrow !!!!

I am workin on it, I don't have a recent backup though so it might take some reverse hacking for me to get it back :p

I don't know why these guys try and flex their hacking muscles on unsecure hobby sites... go play with google or MSN if you want respect :mad:

its not the end of the world, you still got oople and racechat :cool:

well its back.... kind of,

there might be some oddness with users (if they registered after nov 2006)

I will see if I can get a 'recent' copy of my database from the host

why do they always hack your site?

I think you should upgrade to IPB 2.2, and custom script an mkportal replacement in php and SQL, then you can make it more secure than the Bank of England;)

I have to pay money then,

half the problem is that I use the free versions of the IPB forum and MKPortal, they are old and so open to exploits its an easy target...

these hackers are the trophy hunters of the hacker world, its like factory drivers racing club meetings to get their win ratio up :p

I think the $69 for the new IPB 2.2 would be perfect. And MKportal is free anyways lol.

where do you see it for $69? I can only see it for $149!

Oh thats right, they canceled my subscriptions. Sorry mate. I have to pay every 6 months now. You tried V bulletin? I have an up-to-date version I don't use, you can have that ;)

Why should he have to pay, maybe the hackers just aren't good enough to tackle sites with some form of security.

Can your Host not offer some form of better security though, Chris?

Its the forum software, its out of date,. I think you are using 1.3 aren't you Chris? I have 2.2 ;)

I do have a registered version of Vbulletin he can have for free, I don't use it, I didn't get on with V bulletin lol

the host has perfect security, its just that there are loop holes in the software that I run that allow remote code execusion and other things that hackers like

I have 1.3 which was the last free IPB board.

thanks for the offer Ben, I will have a dig around, I will proberbly just patch up any holes I find and then recover the next time it gets hacked

ok mate, np. If you can find out what they are doing each time, maybe you can get a security mod or hack someone has made somewhere to fix the loophole.

Infact here is a fix for a medium risk security hole

hi chris if you go to the mkportal web site there are some update for both security based and will only alter security

it looks like the mupets are in the process of hacking chris's site again bunch of twosers :mad: :mad: :mad:

:(:(:(:(

Doesn't look to be anything wrong with it to me :eh?:

G

Still hacked?!!!!!! :( :confused: That a real shame!

They'dbetter try to hack some famous and superprotected site to get some credibility!! :mad:
When none website will be alive, what they will do??

seems fine to me att

Hummm... yes! Black background and huge characters looks bad but that works.

Just a huge empty time space regarding information between nov 06 and now as explain by Mr Doughty!

yeah the forum works but there has been mischief again tonight

I wonder if its people like Ivision that hack sites that are running on the old version? I am feeling more and more like purchasing 2.2 :p

Don't bother going to my site until I get it to a state I am happy with, I will drop a message on here when its all good.

Nice one chris - hopefully then it will be back up for good!

its got a quick and dirty holding page on www.doughtyuk.net now, with links to places of interest on the interweb :)

I have it back to how it was a few months ago, with the user database from very recently,

I have applied the recomended security fixes, could you please go back to www.doughtyuk.net and check it out, post some stuff, let me know if you see any script errors or bad pages

thanks

tried to log on again this morning and looks like chris has been hacked for yet another time ???? :( :wtf:

Yeah, I bet it's to do with that random post this morning. Looked like a bot posted in the National Team Series forum, probably just waiting for someone to reply to activate the crappy hack. B@$tards!!!

looks like that was me:cool: , i deleted the thread, sorry chris:o

niiiice... that yellow actually hurt my eyes!

It might not have been that, but it's seemed to much of a coincidence to ignore.

Could have atleast hacked it with a blue background, to keep his sponsors happy.

He could at least hack in bloody English! I want to know what he says!

:o BAN HIM!! :D

any more of that and i will ban YOU, don't cheek the mod's :D ;)

my school PCs (and work PCs in fact) DESPISE oople... every other click I make it logs me out.

havent you taken the hint yet em:D

lol, it wouldn't surprise me! :p

Ill set Em on you! :p

... and I BITE. Ahem.
