Hacked :(

Sun Mar 16, 2008, 6:55 AM

I thought Wordpress was supposed to be safe :/. The annoying thing is that all my backups are old and outdated, so I need to redo lots of work, and I'm not up for that right now. The pages and theme files are wiped . Nothing else on the ftp is touched so I really don't know what happened. I guess he got into the wordpress admin panel and deleted all he could from there. I wonder for what reason he/she hacked me (the page was full of the repeating text "OWNAGE by LiL Josh").

Stupid me didn't backup. I thought I was safe :/

Taking a break for today & gonna play some Team Fortress 2. Maybe if I am lucky, my hosting provider makes weekly backups or something. We will see.

EDIT: Thank god my hoster makes weekly backups. Everything up and running again. That saved me days of work.
