hi everyone,

i am using guestbook 2.2 on my site spice-of-life.com and some a-hole keeps hacking my guestbook and defacing it. i do not know how to stop them, is there any advantages to the newest version of guestbook in this regard? currently someone has hacked the guestbook and has changed my login to the admin of the book, so i do not know what to do except for delete all the files off the server and reload them!? i am quite new at this and would appreciate any help. thanks.

best,

michael

Yes, you need to upgrade to version 2.3.1.

If you leave your link, maybe one of us can remove the hack for you. Then show you how to get your own password back.

Deleted that entry. However, they will be back for sure - probably before the day is out. You should upgrade right away.

Private Messaging is disabled here, so how shall I send you the details?

Hey, I just noticed - I used to be your neighbor!

Before returning to Michigan a few years ago to take care of my Mom, I lived and worked right there in Sherman Oaks! My office was in the Galleria, and I lived just a few blocks down on Sepulveda Blvd between Ventura and Burbank Bl.

It's a small world after all.

Got info about hackers and 'hack-proofing'.

As Amber said - you should upgrade to 2.3.1 - as soon as poss really.
