The Singers Showcase & Forum was hacked again…

I have been working on the site for the past few hours attempting to repair, modify, and restore. Unfortunately, I had to reset the server and restore the database to a previous date – Last Thursday, Nov. 11th was the previous date that was not attacked or damaged by the attacker.

I had to rework several pages and redevelop several sections because of this individual.

Hopefully, this will cease.

I hope you figured out who did it and banned their IP Address from the site in the future. Some people suck.

Sadly blocking an IP from the forum would do little to protect it.

Phill I wish you luck on finding the vulnerability! I guess you know they'll be back every now and then until you do, and may get even more aggressive.

Like playing golf
you like to be seen holing the 9 iron.
So do they.

Sites like this will always try to be hacked.
But put your mind at rest.
There is probably less than 500 IT students throughout the world
trying to hack this site at any time.

And these are the good guys.
They are not doing it for money.

jerry12x attacks on sites are certainly not unusual. But successful attacks? Quite the exception. Personally I'm a bit disappointed that I had a submission disappear as well as several comments I left for other singer's songs.

Incidentally, I don't know what you have against IT students. But for the record, trying to break into computer systems is illegal in most of the civilized world. So if you can provide a source for your assertion, please do.
