My worst day!
My worst day ever!!!
Yesterday when dnforum was hacked my site www.talkwebz.com's server crashed.
First i thought it was hacked....
But i found out the server had crashed and the hard drive failed.
 But i had backups like two weeks ago....so now..  I lost most of my members only have 19 members left.
I feel sad...and my hositng company said they couldn't do nothing since the backup server crashed too!
I feel sad....its my worth day ever!!!

That stinks... odd that the backup server crashed too. Are you sure a hack wasn't involved?

If we felt sorry, would it make it better? Don't you have a local copy of your whole site? I have copies of sites I made 5 yrs ago, I have copies of clients sites and my own.

Well, all I can say is you get what you pay for. I recommend v7, but I don't if that is in your price range or not.

vBulletin is pretty secure - what hacks do you have installed that could allow them access?
