Sorry to hear that PixStudio had that happen. Not much sense in doing that sort of thing but that doesn't seem to stop the cretins. >

Website hackers are usually stupid 'kids' with new scrips to play with. I guess is the only time they feel they have control of something in their meaningless life.
I’m sorry to hear that Alexandrie, but I’m glad to know that everything it’s been worked out.

Hi,

I agree with itsrainin.

How is it possible that a commercial website doesn't have a recent backup?

Every itself and customers respecting company should have a daily backup.
How hard can that be? Everything can be automated for a backup.

I see it too many times... we don't have a recent backup...

I just don't understand...

kona0197 wonders who let the insane people in here...

...maybe so, but the "moron" part was and still is not necessary.

You need to understand that these good folks are providing a service to you/us, and probably also have very busy lives, outside of the time they spend doing this.

They have offered a fix to those that have been affected by the hackers, and if this does not concern or affect you, then why post a negative opinion here?

Edited to repond to Kona..... Me too!

I agree the moron thing was completely uncalled for. These people got hacked so a little concern is needed. One does not plan on getting hacked. It is a horrible thing.

I can not stand hackers. Not only do they ruin websites, they ruin it for therest of us when they make keygens and stuff.

And that "MORON" post was NOT needed.

How insane!

The use of a descriptive such as *moron* is a direct reflection upon the one making use of it and not the person/people the user intends it to stick to...


Frankly speaking monthly backup of a web site which is not constantly changing is more than enough. As far as what would need nightly or weekly back ups is something you pick up on as time goes by. As far as needing to have a new key generated goes, deal with it or not but don't whine about it, commercial site or not there is a solution provided so make use of it.

Not including the fact that if you can do it better, then shell out to money, create the site and all the premium skins and icon packs you like and start your own business and you can call yourself a moron all you like.

The fact that they have posted the problem, the reason and a solution does not equate to anyone's negative opinion holding any more meaning than they have a negative out look. Again speaking to the point, I feel they have and are dealing with the situation in the best possible manner with what they face...
