When the site got hacked I took several steps to limit access to various areas of the site. One of those actions was prevents comments from being posted. I have corrected that specific issue, so you should be able to leave comments now.

Well, we’re back up and running. I can’t say that all the holes have been plugged, but they will be as they come to light.
The articles listed in the Reference section have provided a wealth of information on how to make WordPress more secure. You can bet that I have implemented most if not all of these suggestions, plus a few more not listed. While it’s not guaranteed the site 100% hack-proof, maybe we can get three 9s from these changes (i.e. 99.999%). We’ll see.

It seems that some joker who goes by the name Pinky Hacker was able to hack my site over night. The hack appeared in the index.php file of the Tarski theme. How it got there, I’m not sure yet. I’ve shut down nearly all my plugins while I search for security holes.

More adventures from real life. I hope to post informational items, plus the absurd, ridiculous, and funny stuff from the world around us. You can’t make this stuff up!
We hope you enjoyed your stay and will come back soon!
