Those of you who run cgi scripts, forums, or php nuke read up!!
As your webhost we can be the world's best in security, but if your site isn't using secure scripts it will get hacked.

Tomorrow (7/6/03)there is a deface a thon going on. You can read up on it here. .http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=stor...gs_3&printer=1
We have already lost one site being "hacked" from an out of date forum that had a few exploits. Please go through all your scripts update them to the latest versions, and read up for any possible security issues they might have. Please don't take this lightly tomorrow is going to be a big day.
