WordPress Upgrade

Thursday, October 2nd, 2008

I have upgraded to the latest version of WordPress for added security. The website was hacked (again) and I’m wondering what I’m doing wrong. As a consequence, I have lost all of the pictures that have been uploaded recently, making my website rather bland (who could live in a world without pictures?).

However, I will make up for it by including extra pictures in my next post.

Update on Hacking

Tuesday, June 10th, 2008

As you can see, I have finally upgraded to the latest version of WordPress. I am still using the default style that came with it, as I haven’t yet had the time to mess with it. I like it better so far, since it automatically saves drafts for me while I’m typing. It also has a ‘tag’ system, which I will try to utilize (try being the key word here; I don’t even remember to use categories most of the time!).

I’m still investigating the hack. Here is a picture of what the website looked like, if you were completely confused:

As always, help with the situation is appreciated.

Apologies

Monday, June 9th, 2008

I apologize for the downtime. It appears that someone has somehow hacked into one of the various interfaces and has messed up my website. I have temporarily restored it and I will be looking into finding out what the vulnerability was/is. If anyone has any information or tips, please e-mail me.

If anyone has any clue what “ab0 haj4r ta3m” means, please let me know. This is the message that clete2.com had on it. The rest seemed to be arabic.

New Blog

Monday, August 7th, 2006

Hi, my name is Clete R. Blackwell II. In the past, I owned The Linux Blogger and have assisted in many other sites. This is my new personal blog. Mostly, it’s to replace my MySpace. As many of my friends know, I hate MySpace, so I will be using this website instead.

I would like to thank Nathan W. Wong for hosting this website.

P.S. You may notice computer-related entries. Most people that I know are not computer-saavy. So this is just a heads-up for you all. :) Oh and also, you can find my old page here.
